Brendan "Birdman" Canarie

Brendan is a 17 year old student at Hall High School looking to expand his horizons.

Q: Where you from Brendan?

A: I was born in Springfield and then I moved to New Haven. I lived there for a few years and then I moved here, to the great town of West Hartford.

Q: What would you say motivates you to work hard?

A: Well, I keep a circle of winners around my life, and they all motivate me. I’m a key member of the track and field team, a key member of Empty Bowls club, and I have various hobbies that interest me. I surround myself with interesting people that like to get to the bag.

Q: Say it’s a typical Summer day no Covid what do you do?

A: That’s a good one. First thing I do I hit up the kitchen. Maybe I call up a friend, a couple friends to come help me. I make a good meal, a big meal, probably some eggs, bacon, I’ll get some potatoes make some hash browns, maybe I make french toast too. Then I watch a wonderful film, maybe a foreign film, and then I go to work, whatever that is.

Q: So, why are you taking journalism?

A: Well, you know at the end of the day I’m a curious man. I strive to learn more about myself and the world around me, and journalism is really a place where I can let that part of me flourish and grow.

Q: How do you think journalism will help you in the future?

A: It’s really important to learn the core skills of asking questions and answering those questions.
