About the Contributors
Mia Kirkorsky '24, Business Manager
Business Manager Mia Kirkorsky ’24 knows the feeling of hard work as a coxswain at Saugatuck Rowing Club and business manager at Inklings. Kirkorsky got into journalism after taking the class freshman year.
“Since I do a sport it’s nice that it’s a club but also a class,” Kirkorsky said.
Ultimately, she isn’t interested in becoming a journalist, but her time at Inklings may help her with her potential future.
“I would use the knowledge I've learned from being a business manager,” Kirkorsky said, “because I want to minor in business.”
Caroline Zajac ’25, Business Manager
Business Manager Caroline Zajac ’25 knows budgeting. Whether it's her time split between school and rowing or the funds for Inklings News, Zajac ensures everything in her life runs smoothly.
“I row nine times a week: daily after school and in the mornings on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday,” Zajac said.
Zajac’s solace comes in her work for Inklings. She gets to manage her love for business with a well-needed break from other extracurriculars.
“I wanted to do business in a more creative way,” Zajac said. “Really, there is no newspaper if there aren't any funds.”
