Annabelle Heun, Writer
Hi there, reader who clicked on my staff profile! My name is Annabelle, I'm a junior, and this is my first year writing for The Nugget. I joined journalism as a sophomore and found that I really loved the class (especially getting to write scathing editorials; I have pretty strong opinions on varying and somewhat trivial matters).
Besides writing and generally being a dork, I love to sing, play the piano, and to attempt to write music. However, my more recent, COVID-19 friendly pastimes include online thrifting and eating copious amounts of cookie dough. I have an incredibly old and incredibly deaf cat named Gracie, along with two dogs who are just OK (they're super cute, but pretty annoying when they want to be). I sing in Starlighters choir, where my true dork form manifests itself, and I am the (self-proclaimed) Mario Kart Wii champion. And yes, I will challenge anyone who dares to oppose my Mario Kart expertise.
Unlike many of my other fellow classmates, I have little to no plans for life after high school, other than the fact I would like to go to college. An exact school and major are currently TBD, but I would love to do something involving music, or a profession that makes some sort of positive impact in the world, no matter how small.
