Melina Olivas, Loretto News Co-Editor

Hello! My name is Melina Olivas. I’m a senior at Loretto Academy High School. I am the Co-Loretto-News editor for The Prax alongside Iliana Moreno. 

This is my first year writing for our school newspaper. I am so excited to have this opportunity to further my knowledge in the field of journalism.

I have been attending Loretto Academy since kindergarten and my mother is an alumna, so I am very glad that I have been given the opportunity to combine my aspiration of being a journalist with my love for my school.

Some of my hobbies include: photography, music, and traveling. 

I am also the senior class president and a member of the National Honor Society.

I look forward to working with my fellow staff members to keep our readers informed and entertained this year.
