Avery Stroth

Avery Stroth, Staff Writer

My name is Avery Stroth (she/her). I’m a sophomore and staff writer for the Evanstonian. This is my second year on staff. Freshman year, I only wrote for the Opinion section but now I am broadening my horizons with A&E. I am looking forward to working more with the A&E editors and highlighting the arts around our community. Outside of the Evanstonian, I participate in theater right here at ETHS. I also volunteer with the Justin Wynn Leadership Academy. For fun, I read and watch movies.
