Sydney Washburn grew up in McKinney until moving to Prosper the summer of 2018. Before joining the Eagle Nation Online staff, Sydney was on the newspaper staff at McKinney Boyd High School. Sydney said she is "passionate about photography, writing, history and art."  She loves listening to music and hanging out with her friends and family as much as possible. Mission Work also claims her time. Sydney has been on five mission trips throughout high school and hopes to give her time to serving on an international one after her senior year.
