About the Contributors

April Kato, News Editor
In the same way her 13-year piano journey crescendo towards a finale, April Kato is intent on making her last year as a falcon and a staff on the Falconer a balance of memorable, accent-like events and legato-like relaxed moments. Joining the Falconer her junior year and being inspired by the wonderful community, Kato furthered her love for journalism by securing a position as news editor her senior year. This year, she hopes to take on more stories than she did last year, as her goal is time management and fighting the urge of procrastinating, all of which she fell captive to junior year. Outside of the newsroom, Kato enjoys quiet moments of reading at home and playing classical and modern music on her piano, a treasure passed down from her mother. On the weekends, she can be seen volunteering at a Japanese language school, drafting editorials for her internship at a local community journal or roaming Barnes & Noble. Throughout the years in high school Kato’s interest for international relations and global topics has grown, linking to her hopes of pursuing such fields after graduation.

Sarina Feng, Editor-in-Chief
With a pack of instant noodles, a freshly ruined sleep schedule and her new desk companion — Bob the felted chicken — Sarina Feng is ready to take on senior year and her third year on the Falconer. As Editor-in-Chief, she hopes to strengthen the bonds within the tight-knit staff while delivering impactful reporting and a quality publication. Feng’s list of hobbies has grown alongside her love for journalism; outside of school and other responsibilities, she enjoys writing, photography, composing music, trying new experiences, overthinking and stargazing on the beach. Other beloved pastimes include listening to music and rewatching favorite animated films. Most often, you can find her sunbathing on the floor or working on some obscure passion project. She looks forward to a final year of high school filled with lasting memories in the newsroom and beyond.
