I am currently a freshman here at Bonita Vista High and a first-year staff member of The Crusader. This year, I am a Podcast Manager. I am looking forward to the new opportunities this position will give me. I chose to join newspaper because I thought it would be a good opportunity to give my community a voice and to see the different things that my school has to offer. Before I became a member of the Crusader, I knew I had an interest in journalism because of my passion for writing. I also noticed that I had a big interest in podcasts and wanted to pursue something similar when I started high school. As a first-year student journalist, this is a big step in my life to see what I want to do in the future.
