“You're only given a little spark of madness. You mustn't lose it.” - Robin Williams
Hello! My name is Max, and this is my first year on The Clarion staff. I am a senior this year, so it is sadly also my last year on the staff. I joined because I have a lot of friends who are in it and I enjoy writing. Another thing that I like to do is acting. I’ve been participating in the school’s theatre program since my freshman year. I even became the theatre president last year. I’m hoping that I am able to do it again this year. I’ve been acting/performing since kindergarten. It’s so great to be able to watch shows come to life. Other clubs that I participate in include: French Club, French Honor Society, and the English and Fine Arts Academic teams. Outside of school, I have a job at Deaz Doodle Ranch which is a dog breeder. I love animals and it was a wonderful opportunity to figure out if it was something I wanted to do as a career. I also try to hang out with friends as much as possible. After high school, I plan on going to Ball State to become an English teacher. I want to be able to create an environment for my students to develop an understanding of and an appreciation for literature.
