Cielo Muniz Sigala, Editor-in-Chief

Hi! I am a junior at BVH and this is my third year on the Crusader staff. This year I am Co Editor-in-Chief and was previously an Opinion Editor and News Editor. I joined newspaper, mainly because of a family member who mentioned it, but also because I wanted to try something new and improve my other skills. Throughout the past three years, I have built a community with new people and with my school environment. I have learned the importance of providing a voice to people who cannot express it and also expressing my own voice. Outside of newspaper, I participate in Mock Trial, M.e.Ch.a, Green Team, Octonauts Club and the BVH Studies Group. 

 

Fun Fact: I am an aunt!
