Nacala Williams, Diversity and Inclusion Coordinator
A tired senior who is only looking forward to prom, graduation and of course writing for the best student newspaper. When she is not working for the Beacon you can find her playing the best sport (softball of course) or injured from playing the best sport. She is also a passionate Baltimore Ravens fan who is tired of talking to Redskins fans who think their team is better.
