Jessica Brady, Editor-in-Chief

Hey, I’m Jess! I’m a senior here at SHS, and I am so excited to be joining the newspaper staff for a second time – this time as Editor-In-Chief! I am super involved throughout the school and community. I feel beyond fortunate to currently have a job on Congressman Matt Cartwright's Re-Election Campaign. When I have time off from work, I love to participate in many of the extracurricular activities here! I am the president of Student Government, co-officer of The Acceptance Project, a leader for Aevidum, a member of the Marching Band, FBLA, and GSA, among many other things! I'm a coffee lover, diehard Swiftie, and I can name all 46 US presidents in order from memory.
