Alexandra Stassinopoulos was a senior at Dublin High School and the 2016-2017 Editor-in-Chief. She joined the Dublin Shield as a sophomore and worked as the World Editor her junior year. Besides writing for the Dublin Shield, she was a part of the Young Writers Club and Me to We. She hopes that her senior year will go smoothly and that the Dublin Shield will be able to expand and include more writers.
