Raised in New Jersey, Arielle earned her Bachelor's degree at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore in 2016. At Hopkins, Arielle majored in Writing Seminars (Creative Writing) and minored in Jewish studies. She was a recipient of multiple research grants including a Woodrow Wilson Fellowship which allowed her to spend several summers in Europe researching Jewish history, particularly the resurgence of Jewish life in Europe after World War II. She kept a blog about her travels titled Saving the Shtetlach which she is currently adapting into a memoir. After graduation from Hopkins in 2016, Arielle spent one year in Berlin as a recipient of the Fulbright Scholarship-Young American Journalism Award where she researched how Jewish life in Germany has rebuilt since World War II.
