Rhea Sethi, Reporter

Rhea Sethi is a reporter on the Wolfpacket staff in her senior year at CHS. She joined the Wolfpacket last year due to her lifelong passion for reading and writing. This year, her goals are to take initiative and to stay on top of college applications. Sethi is also managing various AP and IB classes, leading Bollywood Club and French Club, tutoring, and participating in a youth community leadership organization. In her free time, Sethi can be found in a sweater listening to Taylor Swift, learning French, reading, or trying something new. Some of her highlights this year have been going to the Eras Tour and finally convincing her brother to read Harry Potter (he loved it). In the future, Sethi hopes to explore her academic interests in college and discover what the world has to offer her. For questions, comments, and clarifications, she can be reached at [email protected] .
