Ila Prabhuram, Editor-in-Chief

Hey! My name is Ila (ee-la), and I am a senior at Etowah. This is my fourth year on the staff, and I am the Editor-in-Chief this year. I love writing (obviously), reading, fashion, traveling, and music. In my free time, you can find me binge-watching Regular Show or meeting new people. I am passionate about storytelling, and I plan to go into either International Relations or Law in the future.
