President of both Student Council and Pointe Players, Aliana Ritter ’25 is a creative student at Grosse Pointe South who loves to express herself through writing and acting. Even with all the time-consuming extracurricular activities Ritter involves herself in, she still is able to make time with her small black cat named Loki.

“I just like the ability to convey a story, and inform people,” Ritter said. “It’s a vessel to take out your own creativity, your own opinions and your own thoughts and beliefs and craft them into a piece of literature for people to read and get information from.”

Her role on The Tower has not only helped her to become a better writer, but a better person as well. She believes that the class has given her everyday life skills, and she loves the idea of a student lead organization. Ritter is excited to continue her academic journey throughout her last year at South, and is ready to write for the school paper.
