Mayah Biswas
Mayah Biswas was born on September 8th 2004 in Fremont, California. She has not left Fremont since and is enamored by writing and literature. This is her first year at the paper, but she has worked with Ms. Campisano in her yearbook class. Some of her journalistic interests are covering the latest medical news, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, and also covering the news of what’s trending at Washington High School. As a child, Mayah used writing as her emotional outlet; she would keep many journals that contained her darkest secrets or sometimes her daily schedules. Some extracurricular activities she had during her first two years at WHS were playing basketball and cross country with Coach Vose. Additionally, she devoted time to tutor her younger peers during online school on different topics such as: Biology, Geometry, Algebra 1 and World History. Mayah has always struggled with forming her own plans for the future. She is more than capable of planning out her present day plans and taking charge, but when she’s asked the question: “what do you want to do?” she’s stumped. This is why she is taking journalism: she wants to explore more ground to see what makes her heart sing and live for.
