Madison McGuire, Assistant Photo and Art Editor, Staff Writer

Hi! I’m Madison, the Photo and Art Assistant Editor and staff writer for the Evanstonian. I love seeing the art, writing, and unique perspectives that all of the Evanstonian‘s staff brings to the paper and to be a part of such an amazing group of people! Outside of the Evanstonian, I love to draw, listen to music, and play sports. I am always busy and you can see me frequently jumping from place to place. I also love writing and fashion, as you can see in most of my articles.
