Albane Nicol Kerjan is a sophomore in La Jolla High School. This is her first year in
journalism. She hopes that being a part of the Hi-Tide staff will allow her to improve her writing
skills and to learn how to interview people and search for information. Albane hopes being a
journalist will help her to improve her English and her American culture. She loves reading
many different genres of books and listening to music. Albane is also very interested in politics
and is thrilled about arriving in the United States of America in the year of the presidential
election.
