Zach Combest, Website Editor

My name is Zach Combest. I am a senior. I joined journalism because I love to write and take pictures. I am on the student council, Beta Club, NHS, Quill and Scroll president and I'm in the United for East leadership group. This is my third year in journalism and I am the co-executive editor of the website.
