Cate Rounds, editor in chief

Cate Rounds is a senior returning for her third and final year as a member of the Tiger Times Staff. She has the honor of being Editor in Chief along with her partner in crime, Peyton Sims. When she’s not in Room 50B working on stories or page designs, Cate can usually be found on stage in some musical somewhere. She is counting down the days until she will finally be able to graduate, but until then, she is enjoying her final days as a high school student. Despite the fact that the pandemic has changed many aspects of normal life, she has never been more excited to be a part of the newspaper. With all the events happening around the world, Cate believes that 2020 is the best time to be a journalist. She knows this year will be challenging and even a little weird, but she is determined to make this year the best it can be for the staff. Cate is optimistic for what the future of journalism holds.
