Hey y’all! My name is Leah Boone and I’m a senior. I am co Editor-in-Chief with the one and only Charlotte Turner, and this is my third and final year on the Rooster staff :(. I love to hike, sing, and hang out with my friends. My favorite movies are “The Greatest Showman” and “Knives Out,” and my favorite TV shows are "Gossip Girl" and "Criminal Minds." Next year, I plan on attending Appalachian State’s Honors College and major in Exercise Science with a minor in Sustainable Development.
