Kayley Arevalo is a 15 year old sophomore, currently in her first semester of journalism. Arevalo was born in Supply, North Carolina which is a few minutes away from Shallotte where she grew up and spent most of her life. She spends her free time playing with her cats and from time to time hanging out with her friends.

“One of my favorite things to do is going to Ocean Isle,” said Arevalo. “I like going there for the beach, and I usually go with my friends.”

Arevalo was introduced to the West Wind by her sister Angela, class of 2019. Arevalo’s sister was editor-in-chief for The West Wind her senior year and took the class a total of six semesters. Kayley is following in her sister's footsteps, working to be a great writer. 

“I like to write about current trending topics and would like to do more like that,” said Arevalo. “Also I like Mrs. Saunders, so that helped for why I joined the class.” 

“My proudest moment in life is getting the principal's award,” said Arevalo. “I got it because I think I was a very good student in 8th Grade, and I always helped the teacher because she was leaving that year.”

Kayley’s future plans are to go to a four-year university; although there are no clear options of which school she wants to go to, Arevalo wants to have a career in journalism. Her new passion is already taking a leap by being in the West Wind, practicing and learning new skills and concepts.

“I think this class is really fun,” said Arevalo, “we get to be ourselves without judgment and that's what makes it so fun.”
