Personal Statement

Hello! I am Jaewon Lee! I am so glad you are here looking at my wonderful work. I joined this newspaper class because I love writing for a newspaper. Ever since I started writing for my middle school newspaper club (The Cougar Star), I developed a strong sense with journalism.

Journalism is a way for me to express everything I think. I'm excitied to learn and get better through this class! Have fun looking at my work in this past semester.
