Thank you for taking the time to explore my portfolio! I'm thrilled to bring you this summary of my years as a scholastic journalist. This work has not only brought me purpose in high school, but a purpose and fulfillment I'll chase for decades to come. Before looking at my work, I encourage you to click on the photos to the right to get to know me!

The work in this portfolio is not only a representation of myself, but also of the people who I have reported, written, designed and laughed alongside throughout my time with EHS publications. Win or lose, I love every one of you.
Thank you Owen, Sydney, Georgia, Zach C., Veda, Julia, Pera and Colleen for your guidance and for helping me believe I could make a life out of this work. Thank you Lili, Izzy, Logan, Mary, Atticus, Olivia, Sean, Kaitlyn, Kaela and Maggie for letting me be your EIC no matter how many mistakes I made. Thanks especially to Zach K. You know what you did.
Lastly, thank you to Amanda Thrun, Kirk Schlueter, Heather Haskins and every other English teacher who has ever helped a student discover that they're meant to be a writer.
