About the Contributors

Leon Castañeda, Staff Writer

Leon Castañeda is a junior at Normal Community High School and involved in the track program. This is his first year with the Inkspot as a staff writer. I like finding out what’s going on for myself. My favorite words to live by are: “Life is to short to not be dramatic” and “If you never use it you’ll never get a chance to enjoy it.”

Brady Phelps, Senior Staff Reporter

Brady Phelps is a senior and is a member of Student Investment Philanthropy, Leadership Experience Opportunity club and the varsity golf team at Community. He is a senior staff reporter for the Inkspot. Someday, I would really like to meet Blake Bortles. My favorite film is “Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby”

Audra Wolf, Senior Staff Reporter

Audra Wolf is a senior at Community who runs in cross country and track and is involved in bike club. This is her second year on the Inkspot where she a senior staff reporter. A quote I live by is from Taylor Swift’s song “Daylight”: “I want to be defined by the things that I love.” The farthest I’ve been from home is Athens, Greece.
