Mercy Soly

Mercy Soly, Media & Features Editor

My name is Mercy Soly and I am a senior. I have been on staff for three years now and currently hold the Media and Features Editor position.

Something I really appreciate about our publication is the collaboration and ability to bring different topics to light. Gaining new perspectives is really important to me, so I enjoy focusing on profiles in the community.

Outside of newspaper, I am the co-founder of Loudoun Valley’s Black Student Union & hold the NHS chapter Co-Service Chair position. In my free time, I enjoy reading and spending time outside.
