About me: Olivia Dawson

My name is Olivia Dawson. I am a rising sophomore at duPont Manual High School in Louisville, Kentucky. I am in the journalism magnet at my school and have taken the magnet classes Journalism 1 and Digital Design so far. I have found that writing is my passion and greatest skill, so I hope to improve it at this camp. I heard about Grady from my adviser, who is an alum. Next year, I will work on my school's multimedia staff, RedEye, to help produce the news website and social media accounts. I hope to bring what I learn here to benefit my staff. In addition to writing, I love watching Netflix, drawing, reading, and listening to music. Though I'm not sure whether my further career will involve journalism, I certainly plan to incorporate my writing skills in whatever I choose to fulfill. If I could interview anyone, it would be Jack White because he seems like an interesting person and I'd like to know what he's thinking.
