Alex Cruz is founder of LTCL Magazine. Driven to provide readers some practical advice and solid entertainment. Life is short, lets kick back and have a good time.

I'm a junior magazine journalism major and business minor at the University of Missouri. I came from the lovely Kansas City and am a die hard Royals and Chiefs fan. I enjoy long-distance runs, alliteration and I spend my free time finding the fraternities with the cutest puppies. Carry on, all you pretty people, carry on.

I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC). I am currently a counselor at Aurora University, Aurora, IL. I graduated with my Master's degree in Counseling. I thought it would be great to be able to share my experience and insights with you. I hope it helps!

Brinton is a third year student at the University of California, Davis and is majoring in English, with a minor in Textiles & Clothing. Her passion (at the risk of sounding extremely cliché) is fashion, as well as writing, cooking, fitness, and movies. Pursuing a career in magazine journalism is the next check on her to-do list.

Emily Glover is a recent graduate from the University of Kansas, where she got a degree in journalism and mass communications. Now she lives in a little house in the country with her husband, a dog and two cats. In her free time, Emily enjoys running, kickboxing and testing out new recipes. She works full-time as an editor, but moonlights as a health and relationships writer.

Notoriously bad at writing biographies...but I'll give it a shot. Things I love: Theatre, singing, dancing, writing, reading and my friends. Things I don't love: The cold, being sick, bad high fives and flakey people. Sometimes I drink too much. But who doesn't? I always sober up in time to take care of my best friends who always drink more than me. It's said that you'll be known by the company you keep. I am proud to say that I keep some damn good company.

Born and raise in St. Louis Mo. I am a 23 year old nursing/business student at Maryille University and work full time in Sales at Pappas Toyota Scion in St. Peters. I love being surrounded by my family and friends doing something outside in the sunshine or by the water! I've gone through a lot as most of us have in my 23 years and have always been the one friends go to for advice on just about anything. So I hope you find the light in my tips and advise in the fab LTCL magazine =]

Hello! My name is Melisa (with one 's') and I'm a Harvard University undergraduate concentrating in biomedical engineering. I hope one day to become a surgeon, so basically to waste away my golden years in medical school. During the summer I work on the MESSENGER Mission to Mercury at the JHU Applied Physics Laboratory, which isn't exactly related to my major, but it's close to home so I get home-cooked meals and my laundry done for me. At school I'm heavily involved in Model United Nations and watching a little too much Grey's Anatomy (dreaming about becoming Christina Yang). Last year I was one of Seventeen Magazine's Freshman 15, so I'm excited to continue blogging!

My name is Rachel Crocetti and I'm currently a sophomore at Hofstra University studying Journalism and Photography. I am one of the campus correspondents for Hofstra's chapter of Her Campus and also a web intern at Cosmopolitan Magazine. I'm very excited to continue writing about college experiences while I'm personally "living the college life." I love writing, photography, tea, yoga, and exploring NYC with friends. I'm also obsessed with Twitter and occasionally tweet some quirky things...follow me @rcrocetti!

Well... I suppose that is entirely dependent on just exactly how far down the rabbit-hole you're willing to venture...
