This being her first year on staff, sophomore Nancy Medrano plans on making an impact on DPMHS and her peers during her time on the publication. Nancy spends her free time binge eating although she hasn’t been able to binge eat or binge-watch movies as much as she would like because she recently became the mother of two 5 month teacup chihuahua, She enjoys binge-watching shows like “That ‘70s Show” and “Jane The Virgin,” and loves to watch horror movies. Sadly she can’t play lacrosse and be the athlete she hoped to be this year but she can still write a great story. Nancy wants to continue taking college courses and advancing in her education so she graduates early.
