Callie Hobbs is a Community School of Davidson (CSD) senior. This is her second year in Journalism and throughout her first year she discovered a variety of related skills including multimedia and podcasting. She is excited not only to grow her skills and explore more opportunities/areas of journalism but also to grow as a leader in the program and continue to push herself out of her comfort zone. Callie hopes to continue chasing this passion by majoring in media/journalism, marketing or communications in college.

Callie cares about leadership and kindness. She is also an avid runner who is the team captain of CSD’s Varsity Cross Country team, a 2x half marathon finisher (with plans to run a third this year), and a Girls on the Run Junior Coach for a local team. She is also an aspiring triathlete.

Outside of school, Callie likes running/training, spending time with family, watching movies in theaters, thinking of ideas for her leadership roles/passion projects and writing.
