Miles Constantino ’25 is a second-year staffer and Multimedia Editor for The Tower. He channels his love for music into his passion for journalism and podcasting. As an editor, Constantino has produced more podcasts than he can count. “Podcasting is something that’s going to grow this year,” Constantino said. He believes podcasting has an increasing role in how people consume news and loves creating content that connects with listeners. Constantino’s enthusiasm for journalism is closely tied to his musical background. Since picking up the Viola in fifth grade, he has also learned the guitar, alto saxophone and piano, and now serves as the Treasurer of South’s orchestra. His dedication to both music and journalism allows him to find new ways to tell stories and connect with listeners. For Constantino, music, like journalism, is a way to express himself and his emotions. “If I feel like I’m holding onto anxiety or depression, and just want to get it out, I just get it on a page,” Constantino said.

Regarding hard work, seconnd-year staffer and Multimedia Manager Morgan Payne ’24 is driven by the word. From working multiple jobs to writing for two newspapers, Payne is diligent, dedicated and disciplined. “I work a lot, I have multiple different jobs, including the Tower which is a big job itself,” Payne said. “If I’m not at school, I’m probably at one organization or being a waiter at Antonio’s in Grosse Pointe Park.” Payne said she loves journalism, not just because her friends are in there because she loves to write. “Journalism has a special meaning to me because its a form of communication,” Payne said. “I’m a big talker and I love to inform, so journalism is right up my alley and is something I am going into for my career.” Outside of Tower, Payne said she likes to write short stories and is a part of different organiztions that empower young women. Payne said she can’t wait for a new year of the Tower and hopes other people will join too. “I would suggest anybody who loves to write, get along with people, get involved with your community to join The Tower,” Payne said. “The Tower has been such a great outlet for me to express myself, so join The Tower if you want that.”
