Freshman Karine Silva is beginning her first year in journalism at Hudson High School. Her interest in the field began while watching a show where one of the main characters became a journalist, inspiring her to take the class and experience what journalism is like.

Karine enjoys following celebrity drama in both Portuguese and English, whether she is in Brazil or the U.S. If given the chance to interview anyone, she would choose Georgina Rodrigues, who she admires for her influence and bold fashion statements.

Outside of journalism, Karine describes herself as a “hot mess” with a love for music. Her favorite genres include funk, sertanejo, pop, and pagode.
