Brianna Yasis, Staff Writer
Brianna Yasis is a freshman at Robinson and a staff writer for Knight Writers. This is her first year on staff.
Yasis decided to join journalism this year because she wanted to be more involved at Robinson and has always found a passion for storytelling as an avid reader.
“I read a lot of books when I was younger and I was told that I can form stories pretty well,” Yasis said.
Outside of the journalism room, Yasis enjoys fictional books, listening to music and playing volleyball. She also has a strong passion for plants and sea animals.
“I prioritize bringing awareness for global warming and pollution that’s not only killing the animals and plants but also us,” Yasis said.
Yasis explores her interests in Marine Biology at Robinson’s Marine Biology Club. Her favorite marine animal is a shark and she’s eager to learn more about them through her extracurriculars. Yasis is motivated by her family to pursue an education in Marine Biology at a prestigious school.
“I want to get into a good university like Yale or Harvard since my mom worked very hard last year to get me and my sister in this country just so we could get a better education,” Yasis said.
