Hi, my name is Hali Ponce and I am a sophomore and new to journalism this year. Honors English was one of the main reasons I fell in love with writing and journalism. Reading and writing about world news is one of my favorite things to do. In college I hope to major in something that relates to reading and writing. A cool fact about me is that I love animals. I have a chocolate lab named Buddy. Another thing I love to do is hike and travel around the world. I do equestrian riding in my free time.
