Dena Trendov, Staff Writer
Hi, my name is Dena Trendov. I’m 15 and a sophomore this year. My parents are immigrants from Macedonia, so I’m bilingual. I’m a staff writer and this is my first year in journalism. I’ve also taken a photography class and have some Photoshop experience. I love reading, writing, listening to music and playing video games. Plus, I’m on the swim team.

Then overall once you get up, you’re just really happy about how well you did,” DiNatale said. She went on to win second place for that event.](https://ikenews.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/IMG_0768-1-900x675.jpg)
