Anushka Patil, Co-Editor-in-Chief

Hi! My name is Anushka, and I am a junior at Westford Academy. This year is my third year on the Ghostwriter and my first as co-editor-in-chief. Previously, I served as news editor, and I loved it! Some activities I enjoy when I am not writing are shopping, trying new cuisines, and hanging out with friends.
