Kate Patrick, Staff Reporter

Hi! My name is Kate Patrick, I'm a senior, and I've been on PLD Lamplighter staff for 3 years. I work in the broadcast department making segments, and occasionally I write articles for our website. I joined Lamplighter to improve my performance in making well-rounded videos for WPLD, while also having the ability to express myself. This year on staff, I'd also like to excel in writing and editing this upcoming school year. I love performing for PLD Theatre, and I love playing The Sims, which created my love for interior design. I wish for this year to be a great one in PLD Lamplighter!
