Destiny Hidalgo is a freshmen at Colton High School, where this is her first year writing for the Pepper Bough. She has lived in Colton her whole life basically, except for when she was a toddler when she lived in Moreno Valley. Outside of school, she runs track, plays softball, and likes to write and talk about sports and what is going on in the world. In addition to writing for the Pepper Bough, she is also in the HEAL program. She has never done something like writing for the Pepper Bough before, so this is new to her.
