About the Contributors
Alex Garzia, Videographer
Hey, it’s me, Alex! I’m the videographer for The Journal. I got this job because of my work and passion for SPTV. Three years ago I had begun making videos for the announcements, which would normally consist of filming my peers giving the news, and learning how to edit it all. However, it did not take very long for me to start going a little further with my camera. I now make skit videos for SPTV and of course, The Journal, using my skills to create entertaining content for all of you! Aside from my day job, I also love spending time with my lovely girlfriend, going to the movies with my friends and spending all of my money at the mall. I’m also learning how to play the guitar, something I daydream about almost every day. Above all else though, I just love to create. Ever since I was a kid, I was writing stories of all kinds in a little red notebook. Now, I get to share my weird imagination with all of Southport.
Ava Campbell, Editor-in-Chief
Welcome back! My name is Ava Campbell, and I am honored to say that I am this year’s Editor-in-Chief of The Journal. Although the reality of senior year hasn’t hit me yet, I’m so blessed to be spending the end of my time at SHS with this amazing group of people. In my Journal career, I’ve been both the Sports Editor and a Features reporter. Outside of The Journal, I play the flute in our band. I also volunteer at Indianapolis Animal Care Services (adopt, don’t shop!), where I get to spend time helping dogs and cats whom I adore so much. I am a mother of two guinea pigs, whose names are Hamilton and Lafayette. You can guess, then, what I listen to in my free time. I also love baking, drinking boba, math and reading as many books as I can. Finally, I love you, dear reader, for caring about journalism! Let the fun begin!

AVA!! You ATE THIS UP!! This is a tough topic to cover, but you did it so well, and I love this video format:) I have been wondering how all of the recent executive orders will play out at SHS, so this is super interesting to me!
