Stella Shirah is a sophomore at North Atlanta and is ready to tackle her first year as a Wire staffer. She is ecstatic to be able to dump her never-ending thoughts on someone other than her endlessly patient friends. When she isn’t “multitasking” by screaming at the Braves game and glaring at math homework that refuses to do itself, you can find her on the softball field or practicing her handwriting (yes, she does that; embarrassing, right?). She spends her summers in New York, either pretending that she’s Blair Waldorf or taking the subway the wrong way (it’s downtown, not uptown!). She is stoked to bring her voice—and maybe some Starbucks—to the eleven stories of North Atlanta this year. (119)
