Tanner Sullivan- Reporter
I am planning on majoring in either Journalism or Psychology hopefully at Vanderbilt, The College of Charleston, or another I have yet to choose. When I get the chance I love to go fishing and one of my favorite moments I’ve ever experienced was when I went deep sea fishing off the coast of South Carolina. I am currently working on my mom’s old ’87 Camaro, trying to get it back to the standards it used to be held at. My free time is largely controlled by my AP classes, AP US History being particularly difficult. I like to learn how things work and have been interested in writing since around 7th grade.

I am Jessica and I’m a senior here at the wonderful establishment that is our Chapin High School. This is my first year on the newspaper though I worked on the literary magazine in the past. I love anything and everything to do with the lake, especially wakeboarding. I have two of the cutest kittens ever known to man and a bird they love to tease. I have an undebatable hate of country music, pogo sticks, bacon, and all math more advanced than 2 + 2.
