Mikail Mirza, Staff Writer
In Mikail Mirza’s first year of journalism as a junior, he hopes to explore the art of creating and publishing stories, whether it be by broadcasting, podcasting, or writing. During his spontaneous move in 2019 from Fremont to Pleasanton, Mikail knew that it was an opportunity to express himself to a new audience, starting with his deep passion for sports. Growing up as a die-hard Buffalo Bills and Golden State Warriors fan, Mikail soon discovered how popular of a community sports is around the world. In fact, his passion was so intense that it inspired him to create his own sports analysis page that offers researched analysis on opinions and exciting discussions across his audience. Within the first 4 months of business, he was able to gather over 2,500 followers through designing posts, recording podcasts, and writing a blog.
Outside of sports, Mikail’s other prominent hobbies include debate, playing the acoustic/electric guitar, and collecting sneakers. He also enjoys playing both soccer and basketball with his friends at the park. While Mikail is usually the life of all his family parties, sitting in his room, listening to music, and reading sports articles would summarize his ideal afternoons. He hopes to utilize his podcasting experience and sports knowledge to become a valuable asset on the journalism team, while also dipping his toes into new projects.
