Alex Vogelsong is a junior looking to dive into all of what GEHS has to offer and become a better writer. He enjoys driving with the top down and doors off listening to music on backroads. Alex, who enjoys sushi and pizza, works outside of school as a front desk agent for a local hotel. If he had to choose another place to live, it would be Alaska for all the nature and the environment the state has to offer.
