Eli Marshall, Feature Facilitator

My name is Eli Marshall, and this is my second year with The Evanstonian and my first as a feature facilitator. I have had a passion for writing from a young age and love writing for the features section as it allows me to cover a variety of topics, such as music, politics, and Internet culture. Outside of The Evanstonian I enjoy watching sports and movies and browsing the Internet.
