About the Contributor
Ritika Jayaprakash, Reporter
After moving from India to Frisco, Texas, Ritika Jayaprakash quickly found inspiration in Heritage High School’s broadcast team, Coyote Nation TV. By her sophomore year, she knew she wanted to be a part of it. Now as a senior, Ritika’s eager to grow her skills in pre-production, camera work, and editing with Premiere Pro. She’s ready to make connections and hopefully create her own short films this season. Outside of the broadcasting program, she channels her creativity into writing movie scripts, listening to podcasts, and painting.
