True Van Dyke is a junior at OHS and is currently starting her second year on the Talon, the first as Editor-in-Chief. She joined the newspaper for her love of writing, and being a part of the creative publishing process as a whole. She has loved being around literature her whole life, and has always felt inspired when it came to producing it herself, so she is thankful that the newspaper has given her an opportunity to do so. Everything to do with reading and writing takes up most of her time and passions, but she also works outside of school, serves at her local church on the weekends, likes to travel to new places, and perfecting her endless pinterest boards and playlists, in the meantime as well.
