I enjoy writing for pop culture because I can see what’s going on in the world outside of school and understand what others are interested in. Outside of the Iliad, I enjoy going to the beach, hanging out with my friends, and going shopping. In the future I see myself moving to an exciting city like New York and writing for fashion designers. (Class of 2025)
