Bryana Quick, Editor In Chief

My name is Brie Quick and I am a junior this year. This is my 3rd year on staff, and I am one of two editors in chief! Being on the NL staff has brought me many opportunities for which I am unconditionally thankful. I play softball for PN and try to stay involved in many different things. In previous years I was the assistant editor and social media manager. I enjoy deep diving into stories, and interviewing people!
