Naomi Alemayehu, Digital Executive Editor

Hey! I am Naomi Alemayehu(she/her). I am the current Social Media Editor for The Evanstonian. This is my third year on staff, my first two years being a staff writer for Feature. Being a part of The Evanstonian has helped me gain new lifelong skills, friends, and opportunities from being a part of the community. Along with the paper I am a part of the SOAR Board, Student Life Editor for the Yearbook, and am a Food Access committee leader for the Community Service Club. Outside of school, I enjoy hanging out with my friends, playing basketball, and working out.
