Imani Ongalo, Managing Editor
My name is Imani Ongalo, junior at Grayslake North. Last year I was a features editor for The Knight Times. I competed in the Sectionals competition and placed 3rd and 5th. I was then entered into the state competition along with most of The Knight Times staff. I've been in journalism for three years. This year I hope to go to State again and hopefully place in the top 6 spots. I enjoy writing and reading which is what drew me to journalism at first, but now after being a part of this family for three years I enjoy chasing stories and interviewing more than I could have predicted. The heart of journalism, truth, is my favorite thing about it. Spreading awareness and writing the truth is liberating. North has taught me many things, but I am most grateful for GNHS bringing me journalism.
