Maren Blakeney, Chief Editor, News Editor

Hi! I’m Maren, and I’m the Head Editor and the News Editor of the Voyager. I’ve been with the Voyager for almost 4 years now, and I love being able to write about things that interest me. Outside of the newspaper, I am also on yearbook, chess club, scholastic bowl, and I do fencing. I hope to go to college and one day become a diplomat.
