Anna Zhou, Executive Managing Editor

Hi! My name is Anna Zhou and I am a senior at Sycamore High School. As a part of The Leaf, our national award-winning publication, I am serving as the Executive Managing Editor. My duties include assisting staff members with designing pages as well as overseeing the production of our four platforms: The Leaf, The Leaflet (our online magazine), shsleaf.org, and WAVES (our broadcast department). During my four years on staff, I have really come to enjoy designing pages, producing PSA’s/ENG reports, and writing stories for multiple genres. Outside of journalism, I am also a varsity tennis player and a member of our school’s academic quiz team. In my free time, I often find myself working on my newest art project or baking my latest sweet obsession.

As my time in room 115 is soon coming to an end, I can honestly say that being on the staff of The Leaf has been one of the most amazing experiences I have ever had. I take great pride in the time I have spent with my fellow journalists being the Official Student Voice of Sycamore High School.
