Editor and Co-Founder
Kevin Bizily
Since beginning to study law independently in 2020, Kevin has developed an interest in the use of originalism for constitutional interpretation. His work includes internships with Judge Jeanette Irby and on a criminal trial as well as the legal column "To Say What The Law Is," published in the Blake school newspaper, Spectrum. Kevin's interests include originalist methodology, the influence of English common law, the application of federalism, and privileges and immunities clause jurisprudence. Using Originalist Angles, Kevin hopes to make law accessible for students and provide them opportunities to explore originalism and legal academia.
Editor and Co-Founder
Maxwell Steinberg
When he isn’t listening to C-Span SCOTUS oral argument audio, Maxwell spends his time working as Co-Editor-in-Chief of his school newspaper, practicing for debate tournaments, and reading poetry. He loves learning about American history through literature and art, reading the Federalist Papers, and investigating law review articles. Maxwell is fascinated by the study of law because he fervently believes that the genius of the American Constitution and system of government has allowed the United States to be the freest and most prosperous country in the world. With this project, Maxwell hopes to provide a medium for others to grapple with the American legal system, which he thinks is the bedrock of civic education.
