My name is Nevaeh Hegedus, and I am a Sophomore. This is my first year on the Mountain Echo Staff. Other than being on the Mountain Echo Staff, I am in Chorus. Some of my personal interests are Call of Duty, The Walking Dead (show and game), The Last Of Us and Arcane. When I graduate, I plan to be a Criminal Physiologist. My goals for the 2025-26 year are to have good grades and represent my school well.
