Lillian Bittle, Writer/Editor

Hello! My name is Lillian Bittle and I am a sophomore. This is my second year in Mass Media and I am a writer/editor. My favorite thing about Mass Media is that I can share my voice with everyone and also I love the people in this class. Outside of Mass Media I am the president of Hive Helpers, an officer for GSA and involved in Speech and Theatre. I enjoy being creative and doing artsy things as well as hanging out with my friends.
