My name is Liam DeSpain and I am a senior at Plainfield South. This is my second year as a journalist for the Paw Print and my first year as an In-Depth Features editor.

I decided to take journalism in my junior year because I enjoy writing, and my brother was in the class. After my first year, my writing skills began to improve.

When I am not writing or in school, I like to lift weights and go on runs. I also like to spend time in nature and skateboard with my friends, as well as editing videos. Through journalism, I have learned more about writing, and most importantly, connected with cool people.
