Ayesha Khan, Staff Writer
Ayesha Khan has been a staff writer for journalism since freshman year. Although she aspires to be a neurologist, from winning speech contests to being featured as an author on an essay magazine, her roots in the humanities dig deep. Khan was featured in the Washington Post newspaper for her volunteering service, in addition to being on the front cover of a national Girl Scouts magazine. Branching off from her scholarly and voluntary pursuits, Khan loves traveling and has been to 15+ countries. Khan’s passion for journalism has taught her that everyone has a story, and she’s helping make tjToday the best online publication!
