Julie Estrada, Staff Writer
The Becton Cat’s Eye View welcomes its newest writer, Julie Estrada! Currently a junior at Becton Regional High School, Julie is thrilled to become a more active member of our school community, and eager to bring her unique perspective into the heart of the Cat’s Eye View. Estrada is a very devoted individual; she participated in Jiu-Jitsu for 8 years before joining Becton’s wrestling team during her freshman and sophomore years. She was inspired to join the team by a state-champion wrestler at Becton who convinced her to pursue wrestling in high school. Unfortunately, an injury prevented her from continuing wrestling; however, she has taken the opportunity to shift her dedication to new activities. She plans on joining numerous clubs, including the Student Council and Drama Club, to see where else her talents can take her. Estrada is especially excited about writing for the school newspaper because of her interest in writing and the arts. She wishes to attend Montclair State University to study English and Drama to become a teacher one day. Beyond her academic and extracurricular commitments, Julie's interests include cooking and painting-- showcasing her creative spirit. She also hopes to write and illustrate a children's book one day! When asked about her love for writing, Estrada thoughtfully shared, “Things are not always what they seem, and sometimes you have to dig deeper to find out what is going on around you.”
