Anna Pierson is a senior at Lake Forest High School, and is so excited to take on the role of Editor-in-Chief for The Forest Scout this year! She participates in Enviro Club, Big2Little, soccer, and JV cross country. She loves the outdoors and spends her summers backpacking. In the car, you’ll probably find her listening to Taylor Swift. Phoebe Bridgers and Mac Miller will often make an appearance as well. Anna would also very much appreciate it if you sent her good movie recommendations so she can add them to her watchlist.
