About the Contributors
Jaclyn Urzua, Co-Copy Editor
Jaclyn Urzua, 12, returns to The Downey Legend after having participated in photography, videography, and podcasting the year prior. Along with The Downey Legend, Urzua is also involved on campus by being a part of the Downey track team. She has been in track since 8th grade and is a jumper in events such as the high jump, long jump, and triple jump. Urzua was inspired to start doing track after watching the Olympics and having one of her older brothers in track. After seeing her older brother compete, she fell in love with track and has dedicated her 4 years at Downey High School to the sport. Urzua has a positive attitude in everything she does and has goals of attending Cal State Fullerton. She also wants to pursue a career in nursing, and become a licensed makeup artist.
Urzua has a passion for expressing herself through makeup. “I loved watching videos, I was the biggest makeup lover since I was a kid” Urzua stated, “When I finally got to start actually doing it when I was probably 12 or 13 I wasn’t really good, but I was just happy that I got to start.”

Elizabeth Hutchinson, Videographer
First-year videographer, Elizabeth Hutchinson, 11, looks forward to her future at Downey High and after graduation. She is excited to make memories with The Downey Legend staff and to put effort into her videos. Elizabeth plans on attending college and studying in the field of psychology. Outside of school, Elizabeth enjoys to bake and read books of all genres. Loyal, caring, and selfless, she never hesitates to help out her friends and give advice. She is very dedicated to doing videography because it inspires her deeply to do more and bring happiness to others through her work.
“I decided to do videography because I feel like I could be one of the only people to capture an important moment forever,” Hutchinson said. “I could be the reason why someone’s memory lives on forever. I feel I have the ability to let something live on forever due to one click.”
