She also loves writing campus-focused articles about current and relevant issues the community faces. In school this year, her favorite subjects are history and psychology. Outside of school, she enjoys listening to Taylor Swift, binge-watching shows (one of her favorites is The Good Place), as well as watching soccer and tennis with her family.
