the Crusader

Carlos Cartlidge, Podcast Manager

I am a senior at Bonita Vista High School and this is my first year on the Crusader staff as a Podcast Manager. When I first heard about newspaper I thought of it as an outlet for my creative bursts of writing, hence why I joined. Since then, I've loved it from the beginning. Outside of newspapers, I am a part of Peer Counseling and plan to participate in a sport.
