Sydney Hall, Writer & Photographer

Hello, my name is Sydney and I’m a junior. This is my first year on the Echo and I will be a writer and photographer. I am an enthusiast of all things cute, like my dog Petey (follow him on Instagram @peteybooboo) and friendship bracelets. My favorite TV show of all time is “30 Rock” and Tina Fey is my role model. Also Amy Poehler. My favorite Jonas Brother is Nick and I am not ashamed to say I have butterfly wallpaper in my room. A lot of people tell me that I always look sad but I promise I am not so if you would like to approach me, that is a-ok.
