Marie Wiegman is thrilled to be a part of the Lion Journalism Staff this year as a junior. As a varsity cross country and track team captain, robotics team member, lector, Marine Chem student, Ignited by the Holy Spirit leader, and member of LINK crew, Wiegman is excited to further understand the multitude of aspects of the Bellarmine community. Outside of school you can find Wiegman attending baseball games, finding new coffee shops, and on the beautiful trails of the Pacific Nothwest.

David Añel is beyond excited to return to The Lion Staff for the 2024-2025 year! This year’s Executive Editor for Digital Media, Añel can’t wait to represent student life—in and out of the classroom—with broadcasts, interviews, and editorials. He will oversee the team’s design projects and video productions, stirring the pot each 4th period at a time. At school, Añel can be found micromanaging robotics leadership, tutoring new Mandarin students, or struggling to choose a font for a design commission. Outside of school, not much else. He’s ready to collaborate and create with this year’s talented team.
