Sophie Hoffmeier of Polk City is a senior at North Polk and has been in Journalism since January 2020, alongside Aden Burdine and Maggie Baumgardner.

Her favorite part of journalism is the story-building and writing.

After high school, Hoffmeier plans to attend the University of Northern Iowa to major in English, and potentially minor in Psychology.
