Mathilda Hallstrom, Staff Writer

My name is Mathilda Hallstrom and I'm a senior student at ETHS. This is my first year writing for The Evanstonian, and I will be writing for the opinion and feature sections. I have been writing for my entire life and I hope to pursue a career in rhetoric. Outside of The Evanstonian, I'm proud to participate in the school's Student Union, Scholastic Bowl team, and Model United Nations.
