In addition to being a staff writer, I am also in charge of Germ’s Instagram. I am an immigrant from India who currently lives in Ohio with my family and 2 dogs. I learned to speak English fluently in under two months and have continued my passion for language through writing and reading. I've written for small blogs, social media, literary classes, Revolution Now Magazine, and my high school newspaper and yearbook. I'm currently a senior in high school who plans to pursue Writing and History as my majors. A fun fact about me is that I'm an environmentalist who leads an eco-friendly lifestyle. In my free time, I play ice hockey and rugby. I first read “All the Bright Places” the summer before HS started and fell in love with reading GERM since.
