Alysa Suleiman (11) is the Arts & Entertainment editor for Harker Aquila. For her third year on staff, she hopes to introduce more areas of coverage for the A&E section and include more community voices on Aquila. When she's not in reporter mode, Alysa likes to practice competitive fencing, update her food-stagram, and attempt new tricks with her extremely uncooperative but energetic dogs, Button and Coco.
