Lilia Epstein is a communications major in her fifth semester at the SRJC and first semester writing for The Oak Leaf. After a semester pursuing a TV writing and production degree at Chapman University's Dodge College of Film and Media Arts, Lilia switched gears due to the COVID-19 crisis and moved back home to Santa Rosa to work towards a communications degree at the SRJC instead. While she has always been passionate about writing for film and TV, this is her first time writing for a news organization. She hopes to transfer to either UC Berkeley or UC Davis in the Fall of 2021 — hopefully in person.
