I’m a writer on Tide Lines, and I enjoy reading and writing things outside of school. After high school, I want to major in Creative Writing and/or Russian History. I plan on having a career in writing about history. Two of the things I love most in this world are my cat, Stewie, and my mom’s Amazon Prime account.
