Melanie Gomez is a junior entering her second year as a staff writer for the Wire. Outside of school hours, you can spot Melanie sporting her AirPods while taking walks to destress from her social-distanced confinement, as well as binge-watching Netflix and constantly texting friends over social media. She also delves into creative writing when feeling inspired (though it’s not always successful). Despite her tendency to easily get lazy even with daily exercise routines, Melanie is more than excited to begin another year of story writing with the Warrior Wire and hopes to come out a stronger journalist in the end.
