If you walk into F087, you can probably find Sophia feasting on @jkoenigskreations, laughing at funny videos, and working with her co-editors for community, the best section! Over the summer, Sophia enjoyed working at Camp Canadensis. In her free time, Sophia takes dance classes, volunteers, and binges her favorite tv shows (no spoilers please)!  Sophia is excited to be a senior and loves writing for Eastside, almost as much as she loves her dog.
