Evan Papania: Future Comedian

By: Caitlyn Conrad

As Seniors decide their future careers, one special Senior, Evan Papania, is looking to comedy for their answer.

Evan Papania has always relied on his comedic timing to make others laugh. As an example, when I asked him what book he was currently reading, Papania replied, “My CCP English textbook.”

And when I asked what his favorite section of a book store was, he simply responded with, “The movie section.”

He not only wants to be a comedian, but he wants to meet some as well.

“If I could meet anyone, living or dead, I would want to meet John Mulaney. He’s my inspiration for comedy. I really enjoy his work.”

Though he looks to John Mulaney and Conan O’Brien for career inspiration, he has one person in mind when it comes to a personal hero.

“My brother is my personal hero. I always try to be like him.”

Evan’s humor definitely adds a positive vibe to the Badin Banner staff, as well as the Senior class.
