The Parker Weekly

Uma Morris, Editor In Chief

Uma Morris is spending her third and final year on the Weekly as Editor-in-Chief. Previously, she served as Features Editor and Staff Writer. Morris can’t begin to express how much she loves pitching, writing, editing, layout-ing, and everything else about the Weekly (including freshmen articles!) When she isn’t doing the Weekly, you can probably find Morris writing a random line of poetry into her notes app, reading a book for Ms. Gibson’s class, or starting a new language on Duolingo. Perhaps most importantly, her favorite news source is Block Club Chicago.
