Nissa Molgaard, Staff Writer
Nissa Molgaard is a sophomore who is very involved in softball, student council, speech and debate, and the musical. During the musical, she was the stage manager where she gets “the hands-on feel and a behind-the-scenes look.”
In Molgaard’s free time, you can find her making origami. Within the past year, she has made over 1,000 paper cranes and hid them all over the school. She hopes to make 1,000 more this year. Besides paper cranes, she also makes paper crowns, daggers, ninja stars, different birds, and whatever interests her.
She chose to do journalism because she likes taking photos of landscapes and seeing how different colors react. She’s also interested in doing the yearbook and something with the podcast. Molgaard has a younger brother, Grayson, and a younger sister, Elin, and has 2 dogs. After high school, Molgaard plans on going to college to study physical oceanography which combats climate change and how the oceans affect our everyday lives.
