About the Contributor
Ava Babson
Ava Babson, content creator director
Ava Babson is a 17 year old senior and is starting her 4th semester in journalism. Babson splits her time between living in Ash with her dad and Sunset Beach with her mom. She continues to do journalism because she loves photography and making videos. Babson is starting her 4th and final year of volleyball at school.  "I enjoy playing volleyball because it is fun and a good bonding experience," said Babson. "There are also a lot of memories I have made in the past 4 years. I love learning new and different things each year and pushing myself to become stronger physically and mentally."  Babson is not 100% positive about what she wants to do with her future. She is currently interested in going to school for Public Relations and Digital Media, possibly doing photography as a side job, and moving out of Brunswick County. In Ava’s spare time off campus, she spends her time with her friends, family, and boyfriend. She enjoys going to the beach, shopping, bowling, making money, traveling, and doing photography at the Race track on the weekends. “Photography is something I've always had a passion for,” said Babson. “You can express all types of emotions and expressions with photography, especially if you are taking photos of sports or anything in public. It is just something that excites me.”  [gallery ids="17421"]
