Natalia Perez-Gonzalez is a Lifestyle & Parenting Intern at BDG, where she assists teams on editorial tasks across Bustle, Nylon, TZR, Romper, and more.

Along with her internship, she’s finishing up her capstone as a graduate magazine journalism student at the Newhouse School of Public Communications, and is a Pulitzer Center Reporting Fellow. Her work lives on Cosmopolitan, Refinery29, Elite Daily, Verywell Health, and others.

When she’s not writing, you can likely find her searching for the best Puerto Rican + Dominican eats in Syracuse, making almost anyone she ever speaks to take the enneagram test (and then spending the next 2 hours chatting about what your test results mean), watching home renovation videos on Tiktok, or other majestical forms of introverting.
