I’m Sam Rink, and I am a sophomore studying journalism and minoring in critical film production and gender & women’s studies. I started working at Illini Media Company in Fall 2023 as a staff photographer for the Illio, and I became the Senior Photographer for both the Illio and The Daily Illini in Spring 2024. Now, I’m the Assistant Photo Editor for both publications! Multimedia journalism is a huge passion of mine, so you might see my work in other publications around Champaign-Urbana. You can check out more of my photography or contact me through my socials or email linked below.
