Sahasra Chakilam, News Editor
At The Sidekick, Sahasra is the dedicated news editor with an unwavering passion for reporting and writing. She’s a hardworking student at Coppell High School by day and an active media enthusiast by night. On the outside is a kindhearted and patient junior, but as the sun slowly descends to the horizon, she’s out enjoying the ambiance of nature. She loves to be outside, walking along scenic trails teeming with a multitude of wildlife. Or otherwise, she’s biking through the roads of her neighborhood, enjoying the bountiful winds in Texas with her fellow friends.
If not outdoors, she pursues her love of all media, ranging from TV shows to movies to music. She enjoys unwinding with her favorite humorous sitcoms like New Girl or Community. Or perhaps some of her favorite iconic movies, like Mamma Mia and La La Land. At other times, she prefers to broaden her horizons by exploring new movies and sharing her thoughts on them through reviews. You can also often find her at many indie and pop concerts, fully immersing herself in the atmosphere. She has a broad and diverse range of music she loves to listen to, ranging from Lana Del Rey to Tyler the Creator, but she is a big Swiftie at heart.
