Christopher Armenta, Writer
Joining the Downey Legend staff for the first time as a writer, Christopher Armenta, 11, is pushing to get out of his comfort zone more and express himself through writing. Besides being a part of the Downey Legend, he strives to become active in the school community being a Link Crew Leader and a Tutor at the Writing Center. Outside of school, he enjoys spending time with his family and relaxing. Still deciding on his future career, his dream schools to attend are UCLA, UCSD, or UC Berkeley to major in journalism or law enforcement.
One Disney character that he relates his personality to is Woody from Toy Story. “He might act tough and be brave for everyone else, but deep down he has a soft spot and has a good heart,” Armenta said. “I’m trying to get myself more out there, meet new people, and spread positivity this year.”
