Laird Krodelsmith, Insights & Features Editor

17-year-old Laird Krodelsmith is known for having a 6th sense for finding cute dogs. A corgi lover, Laird loves cheffing up “bussing” meals for his dog Rique. As a line cook at River and Woods restaurant, Laird knows how to lure girls in with his tasty treats. At 5’11 and 1/4, Laird is without a doubt one of the quirkiest people in the BHS community. Laird likes listening to indie, underground music that you’ve probably never heard of; some may even say it’s “weird,” as if this mumble rap nonsense that people listen to is anything but talentless garbage. Laird likes to shred his board down the blue and sometimes the single-black runs at Eldora. His trusty board “Powder Ranger” crushes down the slopes like nobody’s business. Always up at 7:00 AM, you heard me, 7:00, Laird does his best to maintain a grindset mentality. With finals just around the corner, Laird always makes sure he’s working hard (and playing hard to boot ;). Despite his hardworking demeanor, Laird likes to let loose by shooting the s with his friends and battling foes like “Ohio Final Boss.” Laird joined the Owl as a features editor to crack cases (and skulls if it comes to that). Laird vastly prefers green grapes, as his first time trying purple grapes was the worst experience of his entire life, cancer being a close second. And I guess that’s it from me. Signing off, Laird K.
