Abby Keller, News Editor

Hey there! I'm Abby Keller, a junior, and this year's News Editor. This is my second year on Echo, and my first year writing (as opposed to taking photos).  I can't wait to work with Echo staff to create an amazing year of content. In my free time (mostly during summer) I love sailing, hanging out with friends and soaking in sunshine.
