Sophia is a junior at White Station and this will be her second year on staff. Creative writing is a passion of Sophia’s, and she is thrilled to continue journalism this year. When she’s not writing, she can be found crafting drinks at her part-time barista job, listening to music a little too closely, spending quality time with friends and family, or delving into a good piece of fiction. In the future, Sophia aspires to travel and to one day work in film directing or creative writing!
