Sofia Mahairas, Staff Reporter
Sofia Mahairas is the Editor-in-Chief of ‘The Sciencey Survey’ and a Staff Reporter for the ‘The Observatory.’ She enjoys journalism because of the close connections journalists have with people being interviewed. She enjoys this process because it allows any one person to share their opinion and feel like they are heard. She also enjoys being able to capture a specific moment in someone’s life through photography, and being able to bring out strong feelings simply from a well taken photo. Sofia enjoys other forms of creative writing such as short stories, memoirs and poetry. She plays soccer, and was the Captain of the Bronx Science Girls’ Varsity Soccer team. Sofia enjoys listening to music, and plays piano. Sofia always looks forward to travelling back to Greece to see her family, eat, and go to the beach. She is still unsure of what she wants to study in college, but she is sure that either way, writing is going to play a major role in her future.
