Hi! I’m Shayda Dadvand, class of 2024. I’ve been in journalism since sophomore year, and I’ve spent the time going to journalism conferences and programs. I’m also the editor at Highlights! Apart from my interest in journalism, I love creative writing. I have a lovely blog called Healing (or trying to) where I post personal experiences that help me grow as a person.
