I am Dylan Wheelwright, a sophomore at Timberline High School. I am from Boise Idaho, but I spend summers in Coeur D'alene, Idaho. I enjoy sports, photography, writing poems, and argumentation. When I came to the Taste of Timberline event, I saw a senior I knew from soccer by the newspaper stand. She told me about the class and she thought I would have a lot of fun. (she was right). She said I would get to photograph and write about a lot of different subjects. I became interested in journalism because I was told it looks good for college, I would get to do a variety of different stories, learn more about the school, and the world of newspapers in general. I am excited to photograph and write for this class. I am a good listener, note taker, have good photography skills, and some writing skills too. I have done many interviews of students and teachers in past classes. I have created good communication and interviewing skills from AVID, and Photo 1&2 has really stepped up my skills for photography. I hope to accomplish many things in newspaper journalism this year. Including meeting new people, getting involved in Timberline activities, learning about journalism, and a lot more! I really love playing tennis for Timberline. I’ve been playing at Timberline for two years, now hopefully three. I love going out and doing activities with my friends, and practicing soccer skills with my younger sister.
