Hi, I'm Kenzie! This is my second year on the Journalism staff and I'm really excited to be a part of it. I love writing all articles, but my favorites are feature and opinion articles. I enjoy Journalism because there are so many opportunities to connect with students and staff during interviews, learn new things during research, and I love being involved as a staff member. Aside from Journalism, I enjoy listening to music and podcasts, hulu, and pastry things:)
