Anika Radhakrishnan, Assistant Arts & Entertainment Editor
My name is Anika Radhakrishnan (she/her/hers) and I am a sophomore at ETHS. This is my second year on The Evanstonian and I am currently an assistant editor for the A&E section. I’ve always loved to write from a young age, so joining The Evanstonian has helped me improve my writing skills. I’ve enjoyed learning about the journalistic work process and I love the community of this paper. Outside The Evanstonian, I take private piano lessons at Northwestern and I’m in the vocal jazz club at ETHS. I also enjoy spending time with family and friends, going for bike rides, and creating music.
