Wazzzzzup! I’m a third-year newspaper staffer and the sports editor.

I like to party hard and get super wasted. By that I mean I stay up all night playing Fallout 4 and drinking Mountain Dew. If you are reading this and enjoy watching YouTube videos you should check out my friends my channel. It's called Broken Controller Gaming.

Anyway, I joined journalism because I enjoy writing and want to help make the newspaper and yearbook as awesome as possible.

I play baseball and tennis and sleep a lot. LATER SCOOOOOB!!!!!!
