First Center Spread Page Design
Designed May 2018
This design was the first center spread I have ever created. I made this page design in May of 2018, the first week I became an Editor for the newspaper. The design was used as a way for the new Editors to practice their InDesign and Photoshop skills. I was assigned to create a center spread based on the topic of if the trial in To Kill a Mockingbird was a real case and I had to report on it. This center spread was not meant or assigned for publication, but it was a huge step for me as a high school journalist.

This design was the first normal page layout I have ever created, and one of my first transitions to the world of print publication. I also made this page design in May of 2018, in the first month I became an Editor for the newspaper. In this design, I showcased and proved my new knowledge of using InDesign and Photoshop, as well as my capability of editing the work of other staff writers. This was another pivotal moment in my development as a high school journalist.

NRA shoots holes in arms control
Opinion Feature on Gun Control
Published March 2018
The National Rifle Association (NRA) is an American organization that claims to be the tireless defender of American citizens’ Second Amendment rights. But at what cost?
According to BBC News, the cost is $250 million.
The NRA spends an average of $250 million to fund gun ranges and supposedly educational gun programs to advocate for gun rights.
However, this gun group funds more than just activities for assault-weapon enthusiasts. They also fund the silence and support of countless avaricious politicians through a bribery tactic known as lobbying...
