About the Contributors
Audrey Waters, Editor
Senior Audrey Waters lives in Milwaukie, only a short commute away from La Salle. With an unexpected change in her plans for high school she ended up at La Salle, after receiving a recommendation from a family friend.
She attended Hosford Middle School, where she was in a Chinese Immersion program. This year her favorite classes include AP Biology, Anatomy and Physiology, and Lasallian Ministry. Audrey also hopes to work in the medical field in the future, since it has always fascinated her.
She enjoys photography, video editing, and listening to music. She listens to basically every genre, as it all depends on her mood.
Kieran Crist-Kenworthy, Editor
Senior Kieran Crist-Kenworthy was born in Portland, Oregon and has lived there his entire life. He deeply values its rainy environment, even if recent summers have brought absurd heat.
He was brought to La Salle by its strong sense of continuity with his middle school, Franciscan Montessori Earth School, in both values and shared community.
Kieran possesses an interest and passion for writing and world affairs, born from an over-avid — and, given its quantity, categorically dangerous — consumption of history at a too-young age, which first carried him into the speech and debate team before a somewhat-overdue ferrying into the clutching embrace of Journalism.
He also has a love-hate relationship with running, and a neglectful but fully loving one with biking, both stemming from the 25,000 miles he rode to and from school in his K-8 years.
Outside of school, Kieran loves hiking and backpacking, but, like most people who claim love for those activities, he does them somewhat less than might be implied by the density of their reference. Perhaps because of a full life, or their utility as entirely uncontroversial out of school interests.
