Pahal Sehgal, Feature Reporter

Hi guys! I'm Pahal Sehgal and I'm really excited to be on staff this year and get a more inside look on how all of this works, and getting to be a part of it. Right now, I am a reporter, but I hope to transition to photography at some point. I also am on the school debate team, and am a co-head of one of the divisions. I have a cat that I absolutely love, and I'm super outgoing and easy to talk to.
