Junior Erin McDonald has always had an interest in being creative. Recently, she has taken up a passion for nail art and enjoys making new, complex designs for her and her friends. She explained how nail art serves as both an “enjoyable, and creative outlet."

McDonald also enjoys literature-- her favorite genres are mystery and she admires novels by author Taylor Jenkins Reid. She also has a great love for film, enjoying action, dramas, and biopics.

In addition, McDonald has been playing soccer for around 10 years. She played for Campolindo this past spring and has been playing with other club teams since she was 8. McDonald plans to carry the dedication and diligence that she demonstrates in competitive soccer to her projects in journalism.

McDonald also has a great love for traveling. Her favorite trip was with her family to Thailand in December 2019. McDonald explained that she definitely wants to travel to more places and explore more cultures. She said that she could certainly see herself traveling much more in the future and perhaps studying abroad.

McDonald is very excited and enthusiastic about joining The Claw. She hopes to bring both her writing skills as well as a positive attitude to the workplace.
