Kamryn Kobal, Editor

Hello! I am Kamryn Kobal, editor of The Mustang Messenger and a senior at Cypress Ranch High School. This is my third year in Journalism and I am excited to continue working with the students and community to write about anything news worthy. In my free time I enjoy running, hanging out with friends and going to concerts. Next year I plan to continue studying Journalism while enrolled at a 4 year university.
