Isaac Hsu, Entertainment Editor

Hey y’all! I’m Isaac Hsu and I’m super excited to serve as HiLite’s entertainment editors this year. In my previous year, I was reporter for entertainment and copy editor for news. Outside of HiLite, I run cross country, play the violin, and a bunch of other games. Looking forward to another great year!
