Hi! My name is Ashley Sanchez and I’m a senior. This is my fourth year on staff and I am Editor-in-Chief. In school I’m involved in Senior Wellness Board, Youth Connect Council, Sign Language Club, Wildcats Rise and I’m a Link Crew leader. Outside of school, I like to play beach volleyball, pickleball, go to the gym and visit six flags.
