This is my second year as a reporter on the Mountain Echo staff. I love to learn new things happening within our school while also getting to share that through the stories we write. Whenever I'm not working on the newspaper, you can find me at school events and games dancing with the Lioneers. I'm looking forward to starting my junior year and making new memories.
