Nitish V., Staff Writer

I was born in Arlington, Virginia and came to CVHS during 9th grade from Liberty Middle School. I joined The Sentinel because I love writing and was very interested in Journalism. I always wanted to write for the school newspaper.

I am currently in Journalism 2 with Mr. Evans after taking Journalism 1 with Ms. Hwangpo. As a journalist, I want to write about our school, movies, and other topics that interest me. To me, being a journalist means providing unbiased and truthful articles to the projects.

As a writer I wish to make even the most boring stories interesting to anyone. Some of my favorite things to do as a Journalist are interviewing teachers and my fellow students. Interviewing is one of the many reasons I decided to continue journalism through 10th grade too.

Some of my favorite articles that I wrote would include one about Soviet Spacecraft and another about winter storms in Virginia. I hope to have a great time writing in Journalism this year and hope that you find my writing interesting!
