"Show me to me please."
Hey hey readers of the Cheezburger world! I’m Lana, and I’m a content editor for the Trending Team at Cheezburger. I hope to bring a fresh, funny perspective to the ever-growing internet landscape while giving readers some hoots and giggles along the way. As a member of the Trending Team, I get to write for all of the brands Cheezburger has to offer. Yep, that means you’ll be seeing me over on Failblog, Memebase, Cheezcake, ICanHas, Animal Comedy, and Geek Universe. Having studied all the literary classics in college, paired with having been on Reddit, Instagram, and TikTok throughout my life, I’ll give you the good ol’ English major twist that (I hope) y’all know and love. In my free time, I am a contributing writer for Gazette Gal, which is a digital lifestyle magazine for diverse female audiences. When I’m not writing, I’m scrolling to find some spicy, eye-catching content that folks everywhere will love. Some people call it doom scrolling, I call it research. There’s nothing like a cozy night paired with some classic NYC takeout and sifting through Reddit with my cat Agent Dale Cooper by my side. If you’re into the weird, the funny, and the shocking—you’re in the right place. Check me out!
