About Me: Kat Shambaugh

Hello my fellow newsies and other interested souls,

My name is Kat Shambaugh and I am a rising Junior at North Cobb High School, in Kennesaw, GA. I have been on staff at our newspaper, The Chant, for one year, and look forward to becoming the Features editor next year. I am obsessed with musicals (obviously, I called you newsies), literature, and, of course, writing. I play guitar, ukulele, and drum set, and I sing way too much for my own good. While my future Editor-in-Chief and fellow camp member Adam Kovel did have quite a hand in my attendance at camp this summer, I also came to improve my writing skills and prepare myself for next year. If I could interview anyone, it would be the late Zelda Fitzgerald, who happens to be my favorite author of all time. I would love to see her point of view on her lavish life, as well as on her husband, and listen to her side of the story, which I think is all-to-often forgotten.

I look forward to the next four days learning and laughing with all of you.
