Ava Salado is 18 years old in her senior year of high school, she enjoys studying History, Literature, and Environmental Conservation. She has been homeschooled her whole life. This is her 6th year of writing for The Lighthouse but has been creating small stories since she was two. She has began her first novel. Some of her interests include photography, crafting, gardening, hot gluing everything, playing with her cats (who act like toddlers,) and cooking. When she is older, she hopes to become a screenplay author and director of animated series and movies and/or study to be a conservationist. She also loves animals and would like to one day start her own shelter home. She participated in Odyssey of the Mind for 2 years, qualifying for state in 2020, and has been a part of Homeschooled Films, basketball, and watching way too many sci-fi movies with her family and friends. One of her favorite things to do is to act out funny characters and make random crafts out of recycled material she finds around her backyard.
