Hi! I'm Susannah and I'll be a staff writer on this year's newspaper. I've been writing since I was little, and have always loved it. When I was in 1st grade my parents got me a self publishing book kit for Christmas :) This is my third year writing on a school newspaper, but my first with iUP. In addition to writing, I have a passion for dance and have been doing it for 12 years now. My favorite style is ballet, and my studio is ONE Academy of Dance. We put on fall and spring productions every year, and this year I have the honor of duet-ting with my best friend as Snow Queen! My favorite roles from past shows have been Young Cinderella, Spanish, and Harlequin Doll. I was going to be the flower queen & perform a partnering role in 2020's Alice In Wonderland, but COVID cancelled it unfortunately. :( I'm very much looking forward to Nutcracker though! And I can't wait for this upcoming year!
