HAMPTON RENAISSANCE
Past Editors
Class of '23
Zoe Treadwell
My name is Zoe Treadwell. I am a psychology major, english minor and I am the executive editor of The Hampton Renaissance. We started the Renaissance in the fall semester of 2021
Zyen Smoot
My name is Zyen Smoot and I am an English major with a concentration on creative writing. In addition to my major, I am also the social media coordinator for the Hampton Renaissance. I am in charge of posting, promoting, and, initially, hosting the events. I was born in Varnado, Louisiana which is an hour away from New Orleans. New Orleans is a city known for its vibrant artistic expressions. Due to its closeness to my hometown me and my family often visited and since then I have always had a passion for the arts. I hope to create the Hampton Renaissance into a safe haven for all artists alike and help others find their passion for the arts.

Arielle Thomas
Hi all! My name is Arielle Thomas and I am an English major, on the pre-law track from NYC. In my spare time, I enjoy dancing, reading, practicing yoga, and exploring new hobbies. Currently, my professional goal is to pursue entertainment/real estate law and I also wish to study abroad. As a person who enjoys different ways to express that others express themselves, I am grateful for the Hampton Renaissance as a platform for artists of all trades to freely exhibit their literary works.
Anthony Akins
My name is Anthony Akins! I am a Chemical Engineering major from Cleveland, OH. I am an aspiring author for dark fantasy and sci-fi stories. I joined Hampton Renaissance in order to share my works with the world, one step at at a time.
