Allen Connor Forbus is a rising junior at Sandalwood Senior Highschool in Jacksonville, Florid, and as a member of the Early College program, he is currently taking full-time at Florida State College at Jacksonville. Allen aspires to become an advocate for the deaf community, by being an American Sign Language interpreter and reporting on deaf issues; his experience at WJMC 2023 taught him the value of the written word and substantive reporting, and he hopes to help the students of WJMC 2024 have an experience as life changing as WJMC experience!
