Junior Journalism III student

My name is Christine Powers! I am a junior journalism student who is working on updating the Falcon Press Life Pinterest account and reporting on fashion trends around the school! I have true passion for design, fashion, and personal style so my goal this year is to apply that interest to the school paper.

Outside of Falcon Press I focus heavily on my school work and extra curricular activities around Cox!
