When I arrived at Da Vinci Communications in my sophomore year, I was determined to become involved in my school as well as continue to pursue my passion for journalism and writing. I quickly adapted to the new environment and soon found myself as an Editor-In-Chief of The Pack my first year on the staff and was given the opportunity to attend the Spring National High School Journalism Convention in Anaheim, CA. As junior year approached, I quickly knew that I wanted to pursue journalism to a new extent through the journalism pathway. I have written a variety of articles from features to multimedia to news and covered the Teen Issues beat. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, spending time with family, playing basketball, cooking, and watching movies at home.
