Hello, I’m Conan. I am in the class of 2028 and have been doing LD debate since the 2022-2023 Academic year. I started debate in a small Miami school without huge prep groups, large coaching personnel, etc, where I learned how to debate by constantly practicing and watching numerous videos by myself. I began my high school debate career at American Heritage Broward, where I met many amazing people and further refined my debate skills, which I am still doing today. I specialize in philosophy and theory now, but I used to LARP. Outside of debate, I do a lot of community service, play guitar and saxophone, and read philosophy and political literature. I look forward to working with you all this summer!
