Gozde Bayraktar is a 17 year old senior at Lindenhurst High School and this is her first time writing for the Charles Street Times. She will be reporting on Peer Leadership and various other club events that go on throughout the year. This will definitely be a challenge but, she is always up for new things and tasks to overcome. She is in National Honor Society, Student Council, Lindy Cares, Marching Band, and Peer Leadership. She enjoys hanging out with her friends and family, listening to music, traveling, and going on new adventures. Her favorite food is ice cream and burgers. She hopes this year will bring new opportunities and experiences.
