Howdy! I’m Parker, and I’m a senior beginning my first year of writing for The Hoofbeat! When I’m not writing for either the newspaper or yearbook, I also enjoy doodling, playing trading card games, writing fantasies, and practicing the cello. And in the background of all of this, there’s a good chance that I’m also listening to music at potentially ear-damaging volumes. I’m very excited for this year, and I hope you enjoy the newspaper!
