Eric Tiettmeyer, eric@studenttraveler.com
Eric Tiettmeyer
started Student Traveler out of his dorm room at the University of California,
Irvine, with $200 and a box of crayons. He has traveled through much
of Europe, parts of Asia, Central America and 48 states in the U.S.
Recently, Eric returned from a two-week honeymoon in Australia with
his wife, Josanna. Eric and his “new boss” reside in Orange
County and attend countless Angels baseball games and teach their new
puppy tricks in their spare time.
Managing Editor
Justin Deitchman, justin@studenttraveler.com
Justin Deitchman has traveled on multiple solo missions throughout Europe, taking him from London to Serbia, and just about everywhere in between. He loves being lost and is always looking for another excuse to travel. When traveling, Justin can often be found in strange alleyways, exchanging broken banter with local hooligans, or sipping bourbon on the rocks in a hole-in-the-wall jazz club. Justin’s two passions in life are writing and traveling, so if he can’t be on the road, what better place is there for him to be than right here at Student Traveler Magazine?

Deanna
Wertheimer, Account Executive, deanna@studenttraveler.com
Deanna Wertheimer
knew at a young age that her path would lead her to far away places.
She wound up expanding her linguistic and cultural horizons during her
year spent abroad in Madrid, Spain. After experiencing the Madrileño
lifestyle, she maintains that nobody can party like the Spanish and
will put any country to the test. Upon her return to the University
of California, Irvine, she immediately began working with other like-minded
travel addicts and hasn’t stopped since.

Director/Photo Editor
Bonnie Yoon, bonnie@studenttraveler.com
Bonnie is the type
of person who you can count on calling and always expect her to be somewhere
random in the world. If there is shelter and food, Bonnie will literally
pick up one day and be somewhere else the next. Maybe it’s all
of her world travels that inspires her artistic eye. Bonnie’s
a master layout artist and graphic designer, can’t you tell?

Site and Technical Questions
Miranda La Barge, mlabarge@studenttraveler.com
Ever since Miranda
studied abroad in Madrid during her UC Berkeley college years, she has
taken every opportunity to go back to Spain and visit other countries
too. Luckily, with her job as a teacher, she has lots of vacation time
to jet around. When she is not traveling or teaching, she is enjoying
eating exotic food, doing yoga, and solving crossword puzzles.
University Relations
Katrina Carrasco, katrina@studenttraveler.com
Katrina Carrasco caught the travel bug while studying abroad in Tokyo, Japan, and hopped on a plane as soon as she had her diploma in hand. She has lived and worked in Scotland, Australia, and New Zealand, making rent by, among other things, bartending, answering phones, and changing bedsheets. Always writing and always looking for discount airfares, she is currently saving money to return to Scotland and read for a Masters in Creative Writing. Katrina loves her passport and hopes it will soon contain stamps from Chile, Peru, the Czech Republic, and Greece.
Interns
Paul Detrick, paul@studenttraveler.com
Paul Detrick recently graduated from the University of California, Irvine where he earned a Bachelors of Arts in Political Science with a Minor in English. While at UCI, he gave 'Paulitically' charged campus tours and contributed political editorials and articles to the Irvine Review and the Moxie Magazine. Paul is also an avid 5k and 10k runner and spent last summer traipsing about national monuments while interning in Washington D.C and traveling up and down the East Coast. Although Paul has personally never traveled to Mexico, he did star in a Mexican bread commercial when he was eight-years-old. To this day, he is afraid someone will release this tape and ruin any chance he has at a decent career.
Kai You, kai-on@studenttraveler.com
Kai You has been traveling since he was a fetus, although he doesn't remember much from that trip. "It was too dark to see," he says, "And it was a 'packaged tour'! Get it?" His life's ambition, besides becoming a cautionary tale for others, is to eventually set an inappropriately shodden foot in every country in the world. To that end, he has worn suede shoes among the Gypsies of Eastern Europe, deck shoes among the Parisians, and shiny, formal shoes in China. He's currently in Los Angeles, wearing bedroom slippers.
Leslie Baehr, leslie.baehr@colorado.edu
Leslie Baehr was born and raised in the Los Angeles, California where she split her time between the Santa Monica Mountains and the docs of Marina del Rey. She is now a student at the University of Colorado at Boulder and misses the ocean very much. Currently, she is traveling around the sun and has no intention of stopping anytime soon.
