Excited for her first year on The Accolade staff, junior Kayla Hong joins The Accolade as a business team member. Through this position, she hopes to achieve enough funding to support the publication and make new connections with her peers.

Outside of The Accolade, Hong is involved in many clubs — one of which, she cofounded: Hope for Hunger. She also likes to hang out with her friends and nap with her pet cat.
