Bowen Maki, Media Editor-in-Chief

Howdy doodly! My name is Bowen Maki and I’m a muse with a camera. I’m a senior and I take pictures and videos for the Lantern. When I’m not behind the camera I like to be in front of it with theater, speech, and weightlifting. I have a deep love of psychology, skating, and stuffing my head with useless knowledge.
