About the Contributors

Jaylon Shaghasi, Staff Writer

Jaylon Shaghasi is a junior who is starting his first year of AV Journalism. He is interested in writing articles that can help students gain exposure to events and issues around the campus. He is an active person who is always up for a challenge. Jaylon is willing to do whatever it takes to get the job done. He holds integrity and deeply engages in whatever he works on. Jaylon was born in Castro Valley, California and moved to San Ramon when he was just a couple months old. When he was 5, he moved to Dublin, and at age 10, he moved here to Pleasanton. He loves Pleasanton more than any other city he has lived in. One thing he fears is losing time. He regrets not enjoying the time during his sophomore year and was surprised by how quickly it went. Hoping to preserve every day, Jaylon is prepared this time around.

Brendan Ho, Staff Writer

Sophomore Brendan Ho ('26) is a new member of AVJ in the 2023 - 2024 school year. With not the greatest (or really any) people skills, he hopes to be able to meet more people and learn more about Amador. With an interest in photography and video production rather than writing or editing, he hopes to be able to improve his photography and video production skills throughout the year. He does not plan on making this into a career, but instead plans on going into computer science like most others. However, even though he hopes to improve at these things, he instead spends his time making art or games, or just playing video games with his friends. Sometimes enjoying challenging himself, he tries to do stupid things that he does not need to trying to get better. Without any real interest in sports, the one sport that he will actually do is track and field, and it is really the only physical activity that he does throughout the year. He has tried many different sports, but did not really enjoy them, and would rather just sit at home and be chair-potato.
