Jessica Zakhary is an AHN Senior and this is her first year on the Achona staff. In school, Zakhary is on Ambassadors and is co-president of the Service Club. She has always enjoyed reading and writing, so naturally her favorite subject is English. When she is not in school she volunteers at her church teaching children church songs. As a senior, the thing she is most excited for this year is graduation. After high school, she wants to attend college in either LA or New York to study medicine. She is of Egyptian descent and her favorite place to travel to is Egypt. Zakhary is trilingual, speaking English, Arabic, and Coptic. In her free time, she can be found listening to music on Spotify, reading the latest juicy gossip on E!News, or taking cool pictures to post on VSCO. Her favorite shows to binge watch on Netflix are Pretty Little Liars, House Hunters, and Keeping Up With The Kardashians.
