Dylan Fischer is a 17-year-old contributor to The Torch at John F. Kennedy Memorial High School and is in his first year of journalism. Fischer decided to take the class after his classmate and fellow Torch contributor Jeremy Fishman suggested that he should take the class. Fischer is a member of the Gaming Unplugged club, where he partakes in Dungeons & Dragons sessions. He is an “indoors” person with interests in meteorology, history and computer science. His passion for meteorology sparked inside him when he was six, after seeing the effects of Hurricane Sandy. Fischer also enjoys alternate history and plans to attend Rutgers, where he will try to obtain a bachelor’s degree in meteorology.
