About the Contributors
Chriselda Sedorchuk, Student Writer
My name is Chriselda Sedorchuk, and I am currently a senior at GNA. I've been attending GNA my whole life. This is my first year in the journalism program. I currently work in an ice cream shop. I've participated in chorus throughout elementary and middle school, and I also played softball in middle school. I spend a lot of time taking photos to capture and remember the memories I make.
In my free time, I like to read, watch movies, and play video games when I get the chance. My favorite movie series is The Hunger Games. My favorite music artists are Taylor Swift, Harry Styles, and Olivia Rodrigo. I am also a Marvel and DC fan. I would love to travel the world one day and photograph all the beautiful scenery. I would love to visit France or Italy.
At this time, I am stuck on two very different future jobs. I would like to go into the trades for welding, but my other choice would be to go to college to get a bachelor's degree in criminal justice so I can become a detective. I hope I get the chance to live close to a beach one day.
Hannah Fink, Student Writer
My name is Hannah Fink, and I’m a senior at GNA. I fearlessly fill the role of Student Council President and I currently work at an ice cream shop. I have six slightly different cameras that I use to do amateur photography. I often spend my time as a Swiftie, constantly making friendship bracelets. I even went to Paris to attend one of her concerts.
In my free time, I like to read, bake, and hang out with friends. My current favorite song is “New Year’s Day” by Taylor Swift. I like to consider myself a Taylor Swift connoisseur, constantly collecting her merch items and listening to her music 24/7. My guilty pleasure is eating peanut butter smidgens and chocolate wave cake.
At this time, my path for the future is uncertain. While I intend to go to college, I have yet to decide on the field that interests me the most. I hope to enter a program that I'm passionate about. I hope that my choice will be fulfilling and lucrative. It would be nice to own a beach house one day.
Mateo J. Ricci, Student Writer
My name is Mateo Ricci, and I’m a Junior here at Greater Nanticoke Area High School. I’m originally from the Bronx, New York. I began attending Nanticoke in the 5th grade, but not before attending 8 other schools whilst my family moved around. I’ve always been interested in the arts, and I’ve been an active member of the GNA Marching band, Jazz band, and Concert band for 3 years now. I play the Alto and Tenor Saxophone, Bass Guitar, Electric Guitar, and Percussion, including Mallet Percussion. I’m also active in the GNA theater program, chorus, and student council. I’m the oldest of 8 siblings, and I consider myself an activist and strive to amplify the voices of others who think they don't have one.
My hobbies consist of writing/playing music, drawing, and literature. I also love to play video games with my friends and go to football games with the band every Friday. I am a firm believer that music can bring people together as equals, and as a queer, autistic Hispanic person, I believe that everybody IS equal, and deserves equal opportunities in life.
I would love to pursue my passions as careers. After High School, I hope to attend a college in New York where I will major in mass communications, and minor in music theory and human rights. I am extremely passionate about the futures of our generations, and I will work to ensure that they have one and want to encourage others to do the same.
Keeth Beck, Student Writer
My name is Keeth Beck, and I am a junior at the Greater Nanticoke Area High School. I have been attending GNA since kindergarten, and I have taken on a few programs over the years. I am in our school’s Jazz, Concert, and Marching Band, and as of last year, I am a member of the National Honor Society. I also enjoy theater and have recently become active in our school's theater program. This is my first year in journalism, and I look forward to writing more in my senior year!
When I am not at school or hanging out with my friends, I am usually at home cooking, drawing, playing guitar, or practicing piano. I also enjoy playing video games in my spare time, especially with others.
I have always enjoyed the arts, so I'd love to attend an arts college in the future to pursue it as a career. I have a few colleges in mind, such as Marywood University or the School of Visual Arts in New York. I look forward to the future, and I'm excited to see what it has in store for me and my peers!
