Carina Liu, Arts and Graphics Editor

Carina has been in journalism for two years, and she stayed at the Tribune mostly because of the amazing community that was built here. If Carina could be any other person in this class, she would be Jia because she wants to have cool fits. One interesting fact about her is that she went through 15-20 fish before her mom realized that they should stop getting fish. Her current favorite movie is Akira and her current favorite song is Doomsday by MF DOOM. Her goal for journalism this year is to create more cool art for the paper!
