About the Contributors
Laura Ridoux
Laura Ridoux, CavsConnect Co-Editor-in-Chief
Laura Ridoux is a senior in the International Baccalaureate program. This is her third year in CavsConnect and she is very excited to return as co-editor-in-chief to lead her staff into her last year of high school, with plans to make it the most memorable one yet. At Coral Gables Senior High, Laura is quite involved, being on the board of multiple clubs including the International Baccalaureate Honor Society, National Honor Society and Future Business Leaders of America, while serving as Treasurer for the Class of 2024. She never backs down from a challenge and is always looking to learn something new. Outside of school, Laura loves to travel, meet people from different backgrounds and take pictures with her Canon EOS Rebel T7. Overall, she is thrilled for this upcoming year and cannot wait to see what lies ahead for her.
Angelina Morffi
Angelina Morffi, CavsConnect Co-Editor-in-Chief
Junior Angelina Morffi has spent her past two years embodying the term, "school spirit," and it remains on the top of her agenda for her third year at Gables. She currently holds leadership positions in Future Business Leaders of America, Academy of Finance and as she boasts most, in CavsConnect as Co-Editor-in-Chief. Outside of academics, Angelina works as a camp counselor. Tutoring eight-year-olds on simple mathematics and assisting them through their biggest troubles like misplacing crayons or leaving the playground, Angelina has loved serving her community. During her free time, when she is not solving drama caused by toddlers, Angelina loves to remain busy. If she is not addictively passing through levels on Candy Crush or baking from the box, then Angelina is certainly driving friends to Goodwill or stopping at Chill-N for ice cream. With big plans and an even bigger dreams, Angelina is excited to see what the future will bring for her. She is optimistic that whatever feats lie ahead, she will conquer, and whatever opportunities arrive at her door, she will twist open the doorknob.
