Meet the Team

The Argosy's second Editor-in-Chief, Ethan wrote the paper's sustainability column for three years before taking the helm in 2026. A student at Fayston Prep, he bridges the gap between environmentalism as a philosophy and the practical, engineering-based solutions required to address climate change. He still cannot resist an energy story, and the masthead has stopped trying to make him.

Attending Pomfret School, Gawon leads the desk she made the paper's most-read. Her writing deconstructs complex social phenomena — from doomscrolling and Olympic tears to the willpower myth — into their core psychological components. She is particularly interested in how media environments shape attention, emotion, and our understanding of ourselves, and in reporting the evidence even when it dismantles her own priors.

David covers the energy transition from the ground up — home batteries and virtual power plants, broken disaster statistics, the solar century, and the machines rebuilding the grid. A staff writer since 2025 and editor since 2026, he writes about infrastructure at human scale: who builds it, who pays for it, and who gets left off it. His rule for every milestone and every miracle alike: audit it.

A staff writer for culture since 2025 and editor since 2026, Patrick writes about culture as an industry and an ecosystem — the death of the monoculture, the AI remix wars, the halftime show that became the main event. He is interested in how attention is assembled, bought, and occasionally shared, and in the rare moments when a fragmented audience still gathers around one text.

A student at Issaquah High School, Peter has written for The Argosy since 2025 and now leads the Health desk. His beat is the downstream half of medicine — coverage, cost, and access — on the standing conviction that a cure which doesn't reach people is a press release. He writes about waiting rooms, price tags, and who gets seen.

A student at Seoul Foreign School, Isaac has written for The Argosy since 2025 and now leads the Education desk. He compares the world's school systems the way archivists compare documents — testing regimes, AI policies, admissions machinery — filed side by side, with the numbers on the record. He owns an alarming quantity of other schools' handbooks.

A student at Miss Porter's School, Ejin has written for The Argosy since 2025 and now leads the Science & Technology desk. Her standing rule is posted above the desk: results, not demos. From quantum circuits to AI-designed drugs to rockets with ticker symbols, she keeps a public scoreboard of what the hype promised and what the data delivered.

A student at Pomfret School, Olivia joined The Argosy in 2026 and covers science and health with a naturalist's eye: follow the mechanism. Her work traces the verbs of biology — transmit, mutate, immunize, erode — through public health, medicine, and the systems that keep both running. She believes thresholds don't negotiate, and writes accordingly.

A student at the Lawrenceville School, Doyeon joined The Argosy in 2026 as the politics desk's first writer of the post-founder era. She inherited a three-year archive of election coverage and read all of it before filing a word; her beat begins with the American midterms and her method begins with listening — precincts before podiums, registration numbers before hot takes.

Founded The Argosy from Seoul and anchored its politics desk with a realist's eye for state power, elections, and diplomatic flashpoints. He is the author of several books available on Amazon: “Through the Canvas,” “Civics for Cynics,” and “Lions Don’t Roar in Parliament.”

Built the paper's science and health desk from NLCS Jeju, deconstructing public health, biology, and medicine with a passion for systemic analysis. Now on the pre-med path, she taught this paper that a column could be a lab notebook.

Wrote the paper's defining work — the six-part “Koreans in Georgia” series — from Statesboro, Georgia, blending personal narrative with deep, evidence-based ethnography of the American South and the community that carried her.

Covered golf, tennis, and baseball with the conviction that the game is never just the game — from the data revolution and the golf wars to a World Series that two countries stayed up for. His failed predictions remain published, per house rules, and he remains proud of most of them.

Delivered direct, unsentimental analysis of financial mechanics and corporate strategy — from the end of easy money to the ouroboros economy of the AI boom. House catchphrase, now permanently on loan to the masthead: follow the incentives.

Wrote on global education, the Gulf, and growing up between systems, drawing on twelve years in Abu Dhabi. Her essays on learning in translation and the Gulf's great education experiment gave the paper its widest lens in a single season.

Wrote from Texas at the intersection of sports, religion, and community — Friday-night lights, the chapel in the clubhouse, the portal and the paycheck. Agnostic with a deep appreciation for interfaith dialogue, he covered belonging wherever it gathered, with curiosity, empathy, and a grounded sense of humor.
