Hi! My name is Yusha Ahsan and I am a sophomore here at Wakefield High School. This is my second year on The Howler staff, and I am thrilled to continue my passion of writing through the school newspaper. Outside of school, I enjoy playing the piano, baking desserts, and spending time with my friends/family.
