Paxton DeVault, Photographer, Yearbook, The Signal

Hi, I am Paxton DeVault. I am a Senior at Thomas Jefferson High School in Council Bluffs, Iowa. I am a part of the yearbook staff and the Editor-in-Chief along with Chrisha. I mainly take photos for school events, such as, football, volleyball, cheer and dance competitions, and TJ giving back. I have taken photos of Donald Trump, Joe Biden, Bernie Sanders, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Pete Buttigieg, and Elizabeth Warren, and I have won several awards. I plan to take photography to the next level in my career!
