Hello! My name is Gaberiel Delacruz and I have been apart of the Stinger for four years. I love interviewing people because it’s one of the best parts of the job. I hope to be doing a lot of stories this year by reporting on the students of Cam High, as well as other events that happen here. I also have a couple hobbies: rambling about numerous topics, playing card games and, supposedly, running everywhere.  I’m looking forward to this year!
