Julie Christie, Editor-in-Chief

Julie Christie is returning to her third and final year with the CavChron as the Editor-in-Chief and is excited to expand the horizons of the paper. She hopes to install the CavChron not only as the primary news source for the students of Hollis Brookline, but also for the rest of the community. Her efforts are being put towards creating a solid online presence and re-establishing the CavChron in print. Outside of school, Julie likes to take photos and maintains a photography and graphic-design based blog. She has written for the Nashua Telegraph on many occasions, and learned from the New England Center for Investigative Reporting at Boston University for two weeks this past summer. She also spent several months writing a monthly column for the Hollis Agricultural Society. Julie is the president of Writers Club at HB, and is working on expanding the writing community throughout the school. After high school, Julie plans to study journalism, and eventually secure a job with the BBC in Africa as a regular correspondent and occasionally contribute photographic stories to National Geographic.

The Mr. HB contestants busted a move on stage back in the 2014 show, pictured above. A full three years before its cancellation, the contest brought in a large audience as well as a rather hefty profit for the Class of 2015.
