About the Contributors

Even though I will most likely never fulfill this dream, I could totally see myself as a florist and possibly owning a flower shop. Whenever I receive flowers I love to preserve them and keep them around as decoration. I find taking the time to arrange the flowers in a visually appealing way very calming. As a first-year senior in journalism, I am glad to say I am a photographer and I am excited to be able to capture the moments in life that everyone wants to remember. My primary interest in photography is to learn how to use a camera. If you don’t see me playing with flowers or taking pictures, I am most likely napping as that is my true number one hobby.

I once rode a mammoth. When I was 8 I went to “walking with dinosaurs” at the staples center with my family and got to ride a robotic mammoth. Photography has always piqued my interest but it wasn't until my senior year of high school when I decided to join journalism and take a role in the line of work. As a photographer in training my goal is to capture amazing memories for not only myself but also for our Van Nuys High School community. I want to make this year special and capture moments we can look back on. I hope to use the skills I am already good at and apply them to this new interest of mine to expand my skills.
