Senior Maddy LaFollette has lived in Oregon her whole life. This will be Maddy’s third semester in Journalism, and she has also been an ambassador since her sophomore year. For elementary and middle school, she went to Holy Family. Her favorite class is science, and she hopes to study chemistry in college. 

On the weekends, Maddy loves to hang out with her friends and family, bake sweet treats for others, and watch many true crime documentaries.

In the summer, it’s a family tradition for her to go camping all over Oregon and to listen to country music. Her favorite musical artist to listen to year-round is Zach Bryan. Maddy has also recently rediscovered her love for reading and writing.
