Brenda Shen, Assignment Editor
This is my fourth year on The Leaf staff (senior at last), and my current responsibility is assignment editor. I have previously been managing editor and news chief. Though I wish to pursue a career in medicine and not journalism, my experience with The Leaf has taught me lessons that cannot be learned in my book heavy courses. The Leaf has created a foundation for me in the importance in communication and the creation of a network. In this final stretch of high school, the time has come to finally crack down on the future. Some possible areas of interest for me are majoring in math or physics while minoring in music theory or piano performance. I started the playing the piano at five, and I have completed my certificate with the Music Development Program along with playing a senior recital. In honor of my Asian heritage, I have started a collaboration blog regarding Asian Americanism. Visit www.walk-the-wok.tumblr.com
