Jocelynn Veliz, OP/ED Editor
Jocelynn Veliz (12) is currently in her senior year of high school while holding the position of OP/ED editor. She has the goal of attending Western Washington University. Her first interest in reading developed in 6th grade with Harry Potter and has then developed into reading series like The Hunger Games and in her current reading Twilight while also reading other individual books. Her favorite book she has read within the school is Lord Of The Flies. Jocelynn is also a big fan of period pieces like Pride and Prejudice and Emma, loving both the book and movies. She has always been skilled in writing and enjoys using it as a creative outlet.
If you do not see Jocelynn sleeping in her bed, mom’s bed, or the couch, she is probably on her phone talking to friends or scrolling through social media. And if she has enough that, she is widening her interest in sociology, watching Attack On Titan, working, or finding other ways to cater towards her tendencies to fixate on different topics, TV shows, media figures, and films.
With her experience with Honors Language Arts, Honors Languages 2, AP Language Arts, she hopes to add writing and editing skills to the journalism team. In the future, she hopes to live a well-established life with a career in something she loves to wake up and do every day. She hopes to visit Spain, South Korea, Japan, and Amsterdam in the early years of her life. She looks forwards to enjoying her last year of high school as a Santiago High School student !! <3
