Vaibhav Sridhar, Reporter

Vaibhav Sridhar is a sophomore. He joined staff this spring semester, which was a little jarring, but he’s settling in well and is excited for what’s to come. When he’s not writing for newspaper, he can probably be found shooting around on his basketball hoop, playing video games with his friends, or having hour long conversations about his favorite animes. He’s excited to be on staff for the rest of the school year and hopes he’s ready for everything that comes after.
