Madisen Judge, Section Editor

Hi! Im Madisen. I’m a section editor for the Cat Talk and my regular feature is Sound Opinions. This will be my second year on staff but third year writing. For my junior year, I studied abroad in Beijing, China and was a guest writer for the paper. Newspaper and journalism have been a huge part of my high school career and I hope to continue in the journalism field afterwards by going into the communicative arts. My all time favorite foods are barbecue (which i would probably kill for) and Chinese hotpot. Catch me doodling in basically every class. Happy reading!
