Natalie Mix, Print Managing Editor
Natalie Mix is a junior, and this is her third year as a member of The Central Trend. This year, she has ever-evolving dreams for whatever version of a Central Trend print edition is possible, something she continues to work towards with her partner-in-crime, Lauren Batterbee. But as reality manifests itself differently than she ever imagined, and yet shockingly fitting in the grand scheme of things, and her plans for the future remain constantly at the mercy of her whims, two things have remained constant: her passion for people and her passion for words. Within The Central Trend, she has found both people and words, and they have stuck by her side. She is indescribably grateful for the opportunity to make sense of the world with her words, and even more so for the other writers that have become a sort of family to her, allowing her to feel crucially accepted and loved.
