Augustus W. Enger

Augustus, known as “Gus,” is the son of Paul H. Enger of Local 153 (Mixed, El Paso, TX/Las Cruces, NM). This high achiever has been recognized by his teachers, peers, and communities for keen intelligence and spirited participation in all of his endeavors.

Gus is currently in his senior year at Coronado High School in El Paso, TX. He has a natural gift for mathematics, but really comes to life in the creative expression of ideas. His superb command of language and appreciation for nuance serves a genuine love of people. He brings creativity, a sense of humor, and a healthy measure of enjoyment to his studies. Gus’s extra-curricular activities include extensive involvement in theatrical productions as both an actor and technician. He was a founding member and president of his school’s Latin Club, and is a lead singer in a rock band where he also plays guitar and harmonica.

He has interned with the Community Scholars Foundation, a research organization dedicated to creating ethical regional leaders. Gus plans to attend Loyola Marymount University, School of Film and Television in Los Angeles, CA where he will participate in the Screenwriting program this Fall.
