Pravar Mukkala, Opinions Editor

Hey, I’m Pravar and I’m a senior and the opinions editor for the Ghostwriter! I love to bake, write, and sometimes make art too. I have been on the Ghostwriter for four years, and I have experience with writing (especially opinions and reviews), editing, and photography. You can probably find me at home drinking chai and fantasizing about my future world travels. Happy reading!
