Hi! I’m Megan Burns. I’m a senior, and this is my third year being part of The Mustang newspaper. I really enjoy writing and I can’t wait to continue improving those skills as a co-Editor-in-Chief for The Mustang. I want to provide readers with a ton of solid, informative articles while having fun reporting. Besides enjoying writing, I also enjoy math, listening to music, going on walks, and spending time with friends! I’m a member of Link Crew, the National Honor Society and I play clarinet in the Honors Wind Ensemble.  I hope my last year on The Mustang is a great one!
