My name is Lindsey Katsaros and I am a senior at Oakton High School. I have been a part of the Oakton Outlook staff since freshman year. I attended the National High School Journalism Convention in 2015 to further my knowledge in the field. I was the Outlook news editor last year, and I am now a member of the editorial board. I am also a member of the Oakton High School varsity swim and dive team. I am excited to see the newspaper grow and evolve throughout the school year.
