Kaitlyn De Armas, Editor-in-Chief

Kaitlyn De Armas ('21), an original and strong-willed creator, is an Aquarius who perfectly fits her sign's description. She is an avid One Direction fan, her favorite album being Midnight Memories, but she thinks all of their songs are amazing. A humanities enthusiast, her favorite class this year is Advanced Studies Creative Nonfiction. Kaitlyn loves running and hanging out with her friends in her free time. She is really into making playlists and loves listening to them in the car with her friends. Besides running, Kaitlyn plays both soccer and softball. When the weekend rolls around, Kaitlyn can be seen relaxing with friends, as well as sleeping in. This year, she would like to use her position as Editor-in-Chief to introduce new projects. She is looking forward to bringing in and build upon new media formats like quizzes, videos, podcasts, galleries, and playlists. She also really wants to bring about more viewership and make a positive difference on the Webb Community.
