Sydney Lammey, a senior at Fossil, has big aspirations for after high school hoping to pursue photography. She’s been in journalism all four years of high school. Lammey has been interested in journalism for a couple reasons. “I like to write a lot, and I like to meet new people,” explains Lammey. Her goal for the class, as it is student-ran, is to make the newsroom a comfortable place students actually want to be at.

Her favorite things in life have a wide variety, she loves the mountains because of nature but also because of animals and superstitious creatures like bigfoot. Her favorite hobbies include photography, but she's talented in other areas, like drawing and sculpture.

Food is a big part of her life, as she works in a restaurant. Lammey also enjoys cooking outside of work. Her favorite foods include an Indian dessert called Gulab Jamun and sushi, but as a child her favorite food was mini hotdogs, specifically at Chili’s.

A challenge Lammey hopes to overcome in journalism this semester is being more comfortable with people who are more introverted like herself and help new writers become excited about journalism.
