Brigid Banks, Photo Editor

Brigid Banks is a senior at Harrisonburg High School and a photo editor for Newsstreak. This is her first year working on staff, but is excited to join the team this year. Brigid will be participating in cross country and outdoor track for her fourth year, and will also be the SCA treasurer for her second year. Brigid will be juggling college applications this year, and hoping she gets accepted into one of the out of state colleges she's applying to. Some of Brigid's favorite things are old romcom movies, goldfish, and driving back roads blasting music. Brigid runs her own photography business and hopes to do this as her job in the future. Finally, after graduation Brigid hopes to major in photography or fine arts and travel as much as possible.
