This is my second year on The Arrow staff. I am the Sports Section Editor. I enjoy the freedom we have to write about what we are interested in. In my spare time, I run cross country for Westlake and binge watch movies and TV shows. I am a Marvel and Star Wars fanatic. Something interesting about me is that my favorite meal combo is Mountain Dew with chocolate–covered pancakes.
