About the Contributors

Ashlyn Gillespie, Deputy Managing Editor-in-Chief
Pronouns: she/her
Grade: 12
Years on staff: 4
What was your favorite childhood TV show? Little Einsteins or Dinosaur Train
What is your favorite book? I really liked The Things They Carried, but that’s a hard question as always
What motivates you? Being able to meet new people and share their stories, helping their voices be heard through our publication, a platform they may not otherwise have if not for us. That really gets me motivated every day.

Ellie West, Staff Writer
Pronouns: she/her
I am a senior, and this is my second year on staff. As a new student, The Pathfinder has helped me break away from my shyness by feeding my ceaseless curiosity and introducing me to new people. It is this curiosity that I take the most pride in, as it has created in me a strong work ethic, a passion for learning and an open mind. Outside of school, I am often at the barn riding my horses, Scotchie and Gambler, and making memories with my friends. I find joy in spontaneity, in those rare moments of pure joy spent with my closest friends.
