My name is Taylor Kreitzer, and I'm a Junior at GNA High School. I've lived in Nanticoke my whole life since head-start. I moved schools at the end of second grade and went to Hanover for two and a half years. I then came back to Nanticoke in fourth grade, and have been here ever since. This is my second year in the journalism program, and I plan to keep doing it up until my senior year! Some of my hobbies include drawing, painting, biking, and working out.  Not many people know that I boxed, and I'm very passionate about it. I haven't always boxed; I started off with cheer for a while and continued up until I was twelve. I did boxing for two years and instead of boxing I now work harder toward my academics. After high school, I plan to go to Wilkes University or PSWU, to study forensic science and criminology. Even though I'm not set in stone for my future career, I just work towards my goal. This is the biggest goal I have set for myself and I can't wait to hopefully achieve it!

My name is Keira Allabaugh, and I am a sophomore at Greater Nanticoke Area High School. This is my first year as a student writer for journalism. This is my second year at GNA High School. I used to live in Kingston and went to Wyoming Valley West until 8th grade. Some of my interests and hobbies would be quading, writing, playing guitar and ukulele, and riding my bike. I play soccer and I love the teamwork it requires. I am excited to see what 2023-2024 has in store for me this year because every year is a new opportunity to make better choices and make the best out of life! After high school, I plan to go to LCCC to become an RN.

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.

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.
