Adam is a junior this year and it is his first year on the Messenger. He is looking forward to using the Messenger's platform to engage and shed light on important and interesting topics in the school's community. Adam is also excited for the newspaper's opportunity this year to reach many new students and give an idea of what Garfield is about.

Outside of the newspaper Adam enjoys thinking, playing tennis, cello, and is the Secretary General of Garfield's Model United Nations. If readers have any questions or comments about his articles they can contact him at 1agfriesz@seattleschools.org.
