Alix Nath, AHS Needle & Broadcasting Editor

Alix Nath is a senior at Atlantic High School and is involved in various activities including AHS journalism, Quill and Scroll, National Honor Society, and Speech and Debate. Nath is a senior editor for AHS Needle, they also take photos for the website. Nath spoke about their “most enjoyable” subject in school: art and journalism. They said, “I truly enjoy showing different perspectives and I think using art as a medium to do that and writing to do that is important to see”. Nath gives examples of what types of pictures they want to capture, “While the marching band is warming up” and “If it’s a musical or play I’ll go backstage, get some photos”. Nath says they want to “Shine a light on people and things you don’t normally get to see in the spotlight”. They’re working on a behind-the-scenes in Journalism and a “Free speech in a Small Town” piece. Nath says “Once I do leave it’s going to be the people I miss”. They said they were going to miss the people who “Structured my education and have had a lot of impact on me, as well as friends.”
