Rafael Alfonso, Content Editor

Rafael Alfonso serves as The Parthenon’s resident active voice aficionado and website mastermind. In more official words, he’s the paper’s content editor. In his free time, he practices various martial arts and keeps up with his loved ones back in his hometown of Virginia Beach, Virginia. Once he graduates (assumedly) in 2025, he hopes to combine his computer science and creative writing majors into things that make people happier.
