Griffin Larson is a freshman, and is eager to join the Southerner staff. He is excited to build on his research and interviewing skills, and his journalistic writing through the Southerner. Larson spends most of his time swimming on the swim team, although when he has a moment of free time, he loves anything relating to technology, especially experimenting with photography, or building computers.
He also loves to watch action movies in his free time, and a favorite show of his recently was, ‘The Bear.’ His favorite restaurant is ‘Peppers and Fries,’ and his favorite meal would have to be a bacon cheeseburger.
