Charlie Molitor is a sophomore entering his first year on The Central Trend. Charlie indulges in a plethora of activities, including Track, Improv, Marching Band, Art, Music, Filmmaking, Skateboarding, and of course, writing for TCT. Charlie has always found it easy to articulate his thoughts and feelings through writing and literature. Charlie joined TCT after he became friends with some of the members, who inspired him with their writing. When Charlie isn’t writing his life away, he’s often found outside skateboarding with his friends, making music in his basement, or walking his 2 dogs: Buzz and Rosie. Charlie hopes that he makes a good impact in his first year on TCT.
