I am a first-year investigative journalist/reporter. My core beliefs in relation to journalism and newspapers is to preserve truth and artistry in writing and to bring important or interesting topics to public attention through writing. I am dedicated to producing good material which aligns with my core beliefs.
I'm in all of the departments of the Newspaper Club, meaning I have all the roles except for being a leader. I've always been good at writing and drawing, and Newspaper Club had both of those things to offer, so I decided to try it out when I got into 6th grade. But, since I had other plans for the day, I couldn't get anything in the club. So this year, I am dedicated to doing the best I can and have fun while doing it.
