Brooklyn Elsenpeter, Editor in Chief

Hi, my name is Brooklyn Elsenpeter. This is my second year on The Spartan Speaks, and I am currently The Editor in Chief. My favorite part of the Spartan Speaks is getting to interview people and getting to learn about new topics and perspectives. Outside of school, I love to listen to music, travel, and spend time with friends.
