Brayden Khork is a junior at Alden High School with a passion for anime, reading, and storytelling. Some of his favorite shows include Death Note and Demon Slayer, and he enjoys creating his own stories through writing and voice acting. “I’m currently writing two books,” he says, showing his dedication to developing his craft.

Brayden also has a love for theater, with performances like Alice in Wonderland highlighting his interest in acting and creative expression. When it comes to books, his favorite is The Glass Scientist, a Gothic horror story he highly recommends, even if the author’s name is tricky to pronounce. “It’s very fun if you like old Gothic horror told in a different way,” he explains.

His love for characters extends beyond books to anime and media in general. Some of his favorites include L from Death Note, Optimus Prime from Transformers, Mayday from Spider-Man, Max Steel, and Toro from Demon Slayer. “Toro is the most annoying main character ever because he whines about everything, but it’s fun,” Brayden admits with a laugh.

Whether it’s reading, acting, writing, or exploring his favorite anime, Brayden Khork brings creativity, humor, and passion to everything he does.
