Adeline Gruen, Co-Editor-in-Chief

Hi! My name is Adeline Gruen. I’m a senior, and besides it being my 4th year on staff, I'm also one of the Co-Editor's-in-Chief. Besides writing for Ruff Draft, I also play the baritone for the marching band, am part of the school's book club, and am a Life Scout in the BSA. My favorite types of articles are trend features and TV show reviews. I plan on majoring in journalism in college and joining my future university’s newspaper. I can’t wait to see where this next year on staff will take me!
