Paige Levine is a junior beginning her third semester of journalism. Levine was born and raised in Massachusetts and moved to Sunset Beach the summer before her sophomore year. Although she was sad to leave, she visits her hometown and family whenever given the chance.
In her free time, Levine enjoys spending time with friends and family, listening to music, and going to the gym. Levine also joined the tennis team her sophomore year, where she made a few great friends.
“I’ve made a really nice life for myself here and I’m so grateful for it,” said Levine. “Moving this far definitely showed me that great change isn’t always a bad thing.”
Along with joining her new school, Levine decided to explore some new courses. When Spanish class didn’t seem like the right fit for her schedule, her counselor recommended journalism. Her love for writing encouraged Levine to join the class. Since first joining, she has experimented with broadcast and video production.
“Honestly, I just needed to fill my schedule at first–Journalism sounded cool,” said Levine. “Now it feels like I would dread school without it–it’s my favorite class.”
After graduation, Levine plans to attend a four-year university in Massachusetts to pursue a degree in child development and become a high school teacher.
“I’ve had a few teachers that have changed my perspective on school and life in general,” said Levine. “I want more than anything to be that for someone else.”
