WA Ghostwriter

Kristen Su, News Editor

I’m a junior and this is my second year with the Ghostwriter. Although I initially joined for the promise of improving my writing and communication skills, I stayed for the donuts during layout sessions and unfortunate sports photos. In my free time, I enjoy listening to inhuman amounts of jazz, watching both arthouse movies and objectively terrible romcoms, (attempting to) write Pulitzer-winning poetry, asseverating my ardor for superfluously Brobdingnagian words, and learning new languages. Contrary to what Keertana believes, Zootopia is the best Disney movie (Inside Out if we're talking Pixar).
