Kenzie Taylor, Editor in Chief

Hi, I'm Kenzie! This is my third year on the Spartan Speaks and I'm super excited to be apart of it as an Editor in Chief. Aside from journalism, other interests of mine include watching excessive amounts of Downton Abbey, getting a #4 from jimmy johns biweekly, and putting stickers on just about everything. Strengths: editing articles, consuming dark chocolate, making impulsive decisions. Weaknesses: taking a good photo for once.
