Ginny Chung

EVENT EXPLORER: As a junior at UCSB, Ginny Chung was looking for something different when she applied to intern in The Santa Barbara Independent’s calendar department. “I love going to different events, but I always ended up staying on campus,” she confessed. “I wanted to know what was going on in greater Santa Barbara.” Ginny dove right into our annual ’Tis the Season calendar, buoyed by her love of the holidays. “I was blown away by the number of events that people submit,” she said, adding that it was fun putting it together alongside the listings editors. The feeling is mutual — Ginny’s love of discovery makes her a lot of fun to work with, too.
