Lila Heilig, Editor-in-Chief

Lila Heilig is a senior and has been on staff for four years. In her free time, she enjoys going to Barnes and Noble, where she buys a lot of records and, from time to time, actual books. Obviously, she likes to write, but that's a little boring. She hopes that this year brings creativity, new experiences and long-lasting memories.
