Amaya Cruz, Photo Editor

Hi guys. My name’s Amaya Cruz and this is my junior year at Stroudsburg. I’m the photo editor for the Mountaineer and this is my first year on staff. I can’t wait to see where this newspaper will take me and my photography. I guess you can call me an artsy girl who’s just trying to get the best out of high school. This year I’m part of the tennis team, environmental club, key club, art club, fusfoo, and any new clubs I come across. I’m really excited to work with the school to make this newspaper the best it’s ever been.
