Avery Leeper is a senior at South Forsyth High School and is excited to begin her second year with The Bird Feed. She enjoys many hobbies including reading, writing, and drawing. She’s going into her third year of art classes here, as well as her other clubs such as Book Club, Spanish National Honor Society, Social Activism, and beginning National Art Honor Society. After high school she plans on attending college and majoring in journalism, English literature, or creative writing. When writing articles, she enjoys art and entertainment, opinions, and news on current events. If she’s not writing, she’s probably reading her favorite books such as The Poppy War by R.F. Kuang, watching her favorite shows, Derry Girls and Yellowjackets, or listening to music such as Lana Del Rey, Mitski, and Chappell Roan. She looks forward to all the work she’s going to create and share!
