Alexa Samaniego, Staff Writer
Hi there! My name is Alexa Samaniego, and I’m a sophomore here at Cathedral Catholic. This is my first semester as a journalist, but I’ve been in love with writing for years. I also love acting, singing, and directing plays I’ve written. (I’m also a very strong advocate for the Oxford Comma!) In the future, I hope to major in psychology or philosophy, possibly with a minor in theatre. This year, though, my focus is on raising school-wide awareness of the wonderful paper that we are creating here. I am honored to contribute to El Cid.

Verdaynea Eason, Staff Writer
Hi, I am senior Verdaynea Eason and I just love to write! Being from New York City, I have a large sense of adventure, so I love to experience new things. That’s why journalism has been great for me; it combines both of these characteristics of mine. One thing that no one really knows about me is that I enjoy writing poetry. I hope to incorporate this in my writing somehow later in the year. I am also very social and like to meet new people, which makes me so excited to be a member of the El Cid staff. Interviewing people that I have not met before has been quite the experience. Anyway, I am looking forward to a great last year and some wonderful new stories!

Annalisa Feil, Staff Writer
My name is Annalisa Feil and I am a senior at CCHS. Originally from San Fancisco, CA, I spent most of my life in Scottsdale, AZ. I attended public schools up until my freshman year of High School where I then attended Notre Dame High School. During the summer of 2010, my family and I decided to move back to San Diego and be back home with our family. Moving back to California was the best decision I ever made, and it allowed me to have a new start in my life and came with many challenges which eventually turned into awards. In my spare time, I love going to the beach, concerts, and experiencing new things, but most of all, I find the most enjoyment in spending time with my family. Ever since I was 6 years old, I took an immediate liking to babies and toddlers and knew that my career for life would involve working with them. My aspirations are to become an Applied Behavioral Analysis (ABA) Therapist and Child Psychologist specializing in Autism. I have always loved English and writing, so this year I decided to take Journalism to improve my skills and become more involved in my school, and I am gaining many useful skills that I know I will be able to use in my future!
