Hi! I am a sophomore co-features editor and this is my second year on the Ghostwriter! I love reading, all genres of music, concerts, trying new food, and hanging out with my friends. I love sports and am on the swim and lacrosse team here at WA and on a triathlon team outside of school. I am excited for this year on the Ghostwriter and for all the new opportunities to come.
