Lauren Nelson is a fifteen-year old sophomore in her first semester in journalism; Nelson's goals are to get more involved in her school and go to more events that take place at West. One way Nelson has stayed involved is with the DECA program; she has placed in DECA competitions every time she has participated.
“I placed first at districts both years and fifth at states,” said Nelson in her second year with the club.
Nelson joined the West Wind because she wanted to be more involved in school and likes to write. Her hopes are to find out more about people and go to more school events.
“School takes up most of my time,” said Nelson, but when she isn't busy with school Nelson likes to go to the beach and hang out with friends or go to CrossFit.
