Seth Steiner, Co-Editor-in-Chief

Hello everyone! I’m Seth Steiner, a senior here at Wakefield this year, and I’m one of The Howler’s Co-Editors-in-Chief this year and I’m very excited to work with all of our wonderful staff members this year; both returning and new! Some hobbies of mine include cars, video games, technology and Formula 1. I’m honored to be in the position I’m in, and I look forward to working with my peers to come together and continue The Howler’s tradition of being one of the top student newspapers in North Carolina!
