Marjorie Lichner, Head Copy Editor

Marjorie Lichner is a senior at DGS and is the Head Copy Editor for the Blueprint. This is her first year on the Blueprint; however, she did freelance a few pieces for the paper last year. 

When Lichner isn’t at school, she spends most of her time at work. As a Consumables team member at Target, Lichner often finds herself working with heavy objects and helping out other team members. Lichner has been working at Target for about a year now.

When Lichner isn’t working or doing schoolwork, she can usually be found with her nose deep into a book or playing on her computer. Lichner also spends some of her time as a swim instructor, where she helps younger kids who aspire to be swimmers.

Lichner is still unsure of where she will be attending college next year. She is certain that she will want to major in elementary education to live out her lifelong dream of being a teacher.
