Leonardo Nguyen, Photographer Editor
Hi! I am the Photographer Editor of the Crusader 2025-2026 staff. This is my first year on the staff and I have been doing photography outside of school for about a year. I run distance in cross country and track. I am most excited about having more opportunities to take photos for other people and to grow as a photographer. A fun fact about me is that my older brother is actually on the staff as well.

Mikaela Guiterrez, Photographer
Hi! I am a junior at BVHS, and this is my first year on the Crusader. I am a photographer on the staff. The reason why I joined the newspaper is because I’ve always been interested in journalism, and being a photographer was what I wanted to do most. I love being on a team and improving my work ethic. Outside of Newspaper, I am in multiple clubs such as Recycle for Charity and Impact Club. My hobbies are photography and reading. Fun fact: I am left handed.
