2020 Gumbo Final - Book - Page 7
Yearbooks have been a part of my life for many years now, and they have become something I carry with
me in everything I do. Preservation of memories has always been something I place a great deal of weight
on. Looking back on old photos, I love to remember the exact energy and emotion flowing when it was
captured. This is one piece of what made me fall in love with the art of crafting a yearbook. So many things
go into yielding a book that manages to capture the entirety of a community—games won, discoveries made,
awards given, new developments, the list goes on. Being afforded the opportunity to take on covering the
LSU and Baton Rouge community has been an experience like no other. Even in the most unprecedented
of times, we rallied to finish off a year that will mark history in a completely new way. Along with another
national championship under our belt… no big deal, really. My biggest thanks to our staff, this university, and
Student Media for helping craft a book we will certainly never forget.
