About the Contributors

Owen Gouthro, Staff Writer
Aspiring Green Hope baseball player Owen Gouthro is one of the latest additions to the GH Falcon’s staff. In his free time, Owen enjoys calm hobbies such as golfing, video gaming and reading. Some of his favorite book series include Scythe and The Fifth Wave. Owen is a big fan of taking things slow, or in his words, “going with the flow.” Some of Owen’s “going with the flow” activities include his long power naps after school on days when he doesn’t have baseball practice. One other example of Owen’s lifestyle is his “wide outlet” of media consumption that bleeds into his music taste and interest in books, giving him a wide variety of tastes. However, Owen’s biggest passion in life is his hobby of golfing. His dad introduced him to golf at a young age and he fell in love with the sport and adopted the same passion for it as his dad. As for his school life, Owen likes to stick to his routine and maintain a relaxed schedule. As a writer, Owen hopes to channel his wide outlet, relaxed personality and his passions from his hobbies into his articles.

Kai is interested in all aspects of the GH Falcon, but has a specific curiosity in student life, where she can share the stories and accomplishments of her peers. Outside of school, Kai participates in school volleyball, as well as school and club softball. Additionally, she can be found reading, painting or making jewelry.
