I am 20 years old and this is my second year at Wright and I'm a physics major(and plan to do criminal justice too). I am Pakistani and Montenegrin and my biggest interests are, my cat, world politics, video games, music, activism, printmaking (lithography), language learning, reading, anime, cooking, and art (and general) history. I am new to the Wright Times and hope to be able to help in any way possible.

I am in my last semester at Wright College majoring in acting and minoring in journalism. I will be attending Illinois State University's acting program in the fall. I have made around 50 contributions to the Wright Times, including an ICCJA award-winning story on Wright's cannabis studies program. I am acting in Wright's spring play Diary of Anne Frank(come see us!). In my free time I am obsessed with reading and writing poetry.
Hello, I'm currently working towards a degree in Finance. This is my last semester to complete my associates at Wright and then hopefully having a smooth transition into university for the fall. I enjoy reading fiction and discovering new coffee shops around Chicago in my free time.
Hi! I use they/them pronouns! I'm a Classical Civilizations major, hoping to minor in Arabic. I'm only two semesters away from receiving my associates degree! I love reading fantasy/medieval fiction, playing video games, and watching movies (mainly rewatches of LOTR & Star Wars). I'm excited to be on the Wright Times team and can't wait to report to you!!
I’m a creative person with a passion for photography, always enjoying the process of capturing moments and details through the lens. In my free time, I like painting miniature Warhammer models. I’m also a big fan of reading and collecting comics, enjoying artists like Daniel Warren Johnson and Scott Snyder.
