About the Contributors
Ronan Carmody, Broadcasting 2
I’m a senior here at Marist High School and after the school day I go to football practice for the Sophomores because I’m one of the managers for them. I also do Broadcasting Club because I think it’s really fun. I’m interested in a ton of pop culture franchises like Marvel, Star Wars, Power Rangers, and DC Comics. I’m taking this class because I aspire to be a filmmaker/actor. I have a huge love for movies and TV shows. Some of my favorites include Top Gun Maverick, Superman, Cars, and many more! My plan for the future is to go to DePaul University in Chicago and study filmmaking and acting because that’s my dream. A piece of advice I have for anyone reading this is that you should follow your own dream and make the best out of your life no matter the cost. Here’s a quote from a character that I look up to: “Your future hasn’t been written yet. No one’s has. Your future is whatever you make it. So make it a good one, all of you.” -Doc Brown from Back to the Future.
Gianna Bonafilia, Broadcasting 2
I am a senior year at Marist High School. I have taken Broadcasting 1 and now I’m in Broadcasting 2 and Journalism 1. I am also involved in clubs and sports here at Marist, including cross country and track. Out of school, I enjoy hanging out with friends and traveling. After high school, I plan to go to college and continue to study journalism.
Vinny Quiroz, Broadcasting 2
I am a junior in my second year of broadcasting and fourth year in the media program, including two years of journalism. Outside of school, I play and enjoy watching baseball. My favorite teams are the Bears and Cubs. I am unsure what my plans are after Marist but plan to go to college.
Erin Trapani, Broadcasting 2
I am currently a junior here at Marist High School. This is my third year contributing to MHS Media through our club, Broadcasting 1 and now Broadcasting 2. I have done photo journalism classes, script writing, and on-camera courses at DePaul University with professionals such as Carol Marin, Lisa Parker, and Chuck Goudie. I hope to double major in Broadcast Journalism and get my BA in Musical Arts. In my spare time, I enjoy theater, vocal performance, and playing Andrew Lloyd Webber’s music on the piano.
Patrick Ready, Advanced Broadcasting Lab
I am currently a senior at Marist. I have been involved with Marist broadcasting for 3 years, taking Broadcasting 1 and 2, as well as the Advanced Lab course. Last year, I also worked as one of the analysts in the sports segment of our MHS Studio Magazine show. Besides broadcasting, here at Marist I play on the Varsity Golf team, and am in the Investment Club. Outside of school, I like to play golf, watch sports, and hangout with friends. After Marist, I plan on attending either UW Madison or Indiana University majoring in business.
