The Roar

Jharna Kamath, Reporter

My name is Jharna and this is my first year writing for The Roar. I am currently a junior in the IB program. I enjoy reading, writing, singing and playing the piano, and I am very interested in art. My favorite things to do are reorganizing my bookshelf and spending time with my cats. I hope to study architecture in the future.
