The Central Trend

Leah Griffin, Junior Writer

Leah is a sophomore entering her first year writing for The Central Trend. Even though it is only her first year, she cannot wait to help work on various stories and topics. In her free time, she enjoys hanging out with her friends, listening to multiple genres of music, and spending time with her family. She is a part of the FHC Track and Field team, and it will be her second year as a short-distance runner. She also spends most of her time working at a local restaurant: JT’s. She hopes that by the time the second semester rolls around, she will have enough writing experience to start working on the website with the other staff members. She cannot wait to see where the year takes her. 

Current obsessions: Doing her nails, thrifting, and making smoothies

Favorite food: Any seafood

Favorite color: Pink!
