Cailey Niandrea Pasco
President, Editor-in-Chief
Cailey Niandrea is currently a fourth year pursuing majors in English Literature and East Asian
Cultures with and a minor in creative writing at the University of California, Irvine, which is
based on the traditional, ancestral, and unceded territories of the Acjachemen and Tongva
peoples. As an avid writer and reader, Echolalia has provided a space for Cai to pursue her
passion for both writing and aiding others in creating a community for them to share their own
art. Outside of school, you can find Cai tending to her mini garden, spending time with her
friends, or watching her favorite movies cozied up with her current craft project (currently
scrapbooking and knitting sweaters!).
Ryan Aleksander Meadows
Print Head, Social Media Manager
Ryan is in his third, and hopefully final, year as a Game Design & Interactive Media major with a Creative Writing minor. He considers himself a creative person and loves creating and consuming visual art, music, and writing. He hopes to use one or more of these fields in any future careers, in the games industry or otherwise, as he has worked as a caricature artist and enjoyed the break from more “traditional” work. Ryan is looking forward to dedicating time to Echolalia for one more year, hopefully getting to explore more creative fields like previous years.

cynthia Wang
Treasurer
Cynthia is a graduating English major at University of California, Irvine. Typically seen at home on her laptop grinding out her latest hyperfixation through writing, when she’s not doing that, she’s probably out on a walk in the park on call with one of her friends, and in the case that she is doing neither, she is most likely on the bus to somewhere in Irvine where she can make an impulse purchase or get a “sweet treat”. Cynthia hopes that through Echolalia this year she will be able to improve her writing and get to know more people like her, and continue to grow in the community.
