Hey, my name is Evan and I am a sports writer for the Millbrook High School Cat Talk. I am a Trump supporter and I work at a carwash, where, like Trump, hard work earns the most money. I like working more than just about everything and usually work 6 out of the 7 days a week. I like doing homework and watching the NBA and NFL, I am not an MLB fan. This year I hope my experience can serve as guidance to the younger staff members as long as they have a good work ethic. You cannot get anything done without a good work ethic and I hope I can prove that as after I graduate I plan on going to veterinarian school for 8 years.
