Elijah Henry, better known as Eli, is a senior at John Adams High School, and is excited to return to writing for The Tower for a second year. He hopes to provide interesting stories and expand the horizons of The Tower. Outside of the newspaper, he’s part of other clubs, such as the John Adams Volunteer Association (JAVA), and is hoping to participate in Quiz Bowl this year. He also recently became a member of the National Society of High School Scholars (NSHSS). After high school, Eli aspires to attend Purdue University and study cybersecurity to achieve his goal of acquiring his dream job which is a cybersecurity specialist.
Eli is a persistent soccer player. He hopes to continue playing for both recreational and competitive teams in the future. He has played for 10 years and counting, both for the Michiana Soccer Association (MSA) and Jr. Irish. Eli has two cats, has a job at Notre Dame, and is hopefully going to get his license soon. In his free time, he enjoys spending time with friends and family, creating art, and coding websites and bots. His biggest accomplishment with coding is helping develop an AI for an unreleased project.
Eli hopes to provide great content and ideas to expand the horizons of The Tower and offer a good experience for the readers. For The Tower, he’ll do it all: write opinions, interviews, current events, and more. Eli also plans working with other staff members of The Tower to create a more interesting and fun environment for the reader, such as possibly taking part in media, and overall just ending his high school career with some fun.
