Leena Macklin, Feature Editor

Leena Macklin is a junior at GEHS and this is her second year on the Wingspan staff, where she serves as the Feature Editor. 

Last year, she won 7th place for Editorial Writing at the NSAA High School State Journalism competition. Additionally, she won numerous awards for graphics, editorial, review and feature story writing at the Nebraska Press Women High School Communications Conference. 

Macklin joined journalism for her love of writing and to continue her passion for writing throughout the year. She hopes to qualify for State this year and to continue improving her placements at the competition. She is excited for this year and having a bigger staff.

Outside of journalism, she is involved in Cross Country, NHS and One Act. She hopes to continue writing after high school with a focus on creative writing.
