Lauren Jung, Assistant Copy Editor

After a year’s experience as a leader in the Journalism 1 class, sophomore Lauren Jung was promoted to assistant copy editor of The Accolade.

Aside from the writing and editing, Jung is also a secretary of a school club and loves to teach children, watch Korean dramas and fangirl over multiple K-pop groups.
