Hey everyone! My name is Drew and I am a senior and Editor-in-Chief of the Falconer. I joined the paper at the beginning of freshman year and have held the positions of Viewpoints Editor and Managing Editor. In my free time, I love listening to music, cooking, shopping, and teaching yoga.  I am so excited to report on all the exciting things happening in our world and am looking forward to the rest of the school year.
