Silas Flatten, Head Business Manager and Assistant Photographer
Silas Flatten is a third-year business manager and assistant photographer for the Westlake Featherduster. In his free time, he likes to help fundraise money for feminist causes. This past summer, he ventured to Nepal to fully ascend Mount Everest and K2 with a group of sleigh dogs. The dogs were extremely cold, icy and lacked oxygen, but were able to trudge their way through pounds and pounds of snow and permafrost to get him to the top. As a reward for these dogs, he took them to get space rocks at Ophelia, one of Uranus’s gas giant moons, using his late grandfathers dog’s rocket propelled flying sleighmobile. He enjoys eating Syrian street meat kebabs, specifically when the gentlemen serving him calls him bossman and of course shakshuka, the national dish of Israel, and hopes to be a funeral home owner one day.
