  • Ada Shin '25 Becomes Published Poet

    While she’s loved writing since she picked up a pen and learned how, Ada Shin ’25 has only been writing poetry for the past year. Now she has her first published piece of work.

    The senior who will be attending Columbia University in the City of New York this fall was elected as the Topical Winner of the National High School Poetry Contest. Her work is now included in the "Of Faith and Inspiration" section of the "American High School Poets - Winter 2025.”

    “It’s good to know that people like what you create, and it's good to have that validation for what you're doing," Ada said. "Oftentimes I use poetry to make clarity out of what exactly my feelings are. So when I first wrote the poem, I didn't entirely understand it myself, but after reflecting on it and reflecting on how I was feeling in that moment, it provided clarity for that.”
