Shayna Fitzershtein, Features Editor and Business Manager

Hi! I’m Shayna :). I’m so excited to be Co-Features Editor and Business Manager this year! It’s my second year on Edboard, and my third year in The Oracle. Outside of writing/editing, I’m activities director for Law Club, Speech Team Social Media Manager, a member of Mock Trial, and a member of Choir. I’m also a TLC tutor, involved in Fall Play, and dabble in theatre/acting from time to time. Outside of school, you can find me tutoring kids in different languages or volunteering in legal clinics. Looking forward to a great year!
