Yvette Cruz, 18, Tucson High Magnet School:
I want to pursue a career in Journalism/Mass Communications and have been practicing since the third grade. I knew that by getting hired at VOICES, I would be expanding my horizons in the publishing world. I was correct. VOICES has taught me so much about editing, like condensing my work and that I’m on the right track when I begin with one topic but then end up with a completely different story.
