Justin Metcalf, Staff Writer

Hi! My name is Justin. I'm a senior and this is my third year writing for the Central Digest. Journalism is my passion and I hope to lead a successful career as a journalist after college. Along with writing I also enjoy reading and listening to music. I am enthusiastic about my final year on the Digest and hope to make it distinguished and fun.
