Anna Jiang, Head Features Editor

Anna Jiang is a senior and the Head Features Editor of the Wolfpacket. In her fourth year on the Wolfpacket staff, Jiang is excited to create a memorable last year with the class and make pages she hopes to be proud of. Although still determining what to pursue career-wise, she is set on majoring in psychology, sociology, or even child development if her college of choice permits. She loves listening to music in her free time, including her favorite artists’ new albums the hour they come out. She also loves watching re-runs of her favorite shows and occasional tennis matches if they are on TV. She also loves collecting Smiskis and hopes to get one of every character. One day, her dream is to watch Wimbledon or the US Open in person and see her favorite players. As she embarks on her final year at CHS, she is both nervous and excited to leave Claremont (potentially) and explore what's out there in college.
