Hi there my guy, pals and non-binary pals, I’m Cheska Orias, ’26. I love all things art related which includes drawing, painting, crafting, writing, music and photography! Other than that I also enjoy side questing and doing random tasks to help my friends or peers! When it comes to coverage my speciality includes mental health issues, school actives and photography of school events! As this is my last year on The Pinion I hope to make it count while also training the current staff, so they one can take the mantel of Editor-in-Cheif next year.
Besides journalism, I’m always drawing, writing fantasy and sci-fi stories and cosplaying. Whatever job profession I decide to do, I will always be doing these on the side as it brings me lots of joy to do!
Besides my personal email you can contact me with my school email [email protected] if you have any article ideas for me to write or just want to ask my questions about my articles!

Hello! I’m Nhi Nguyen, class of 2027, and this is my third year here at The Pinion. I signed up for Newswriting my freshman year after reading a copy of The Pinion in 8th grade, and to this day, I’m glad I did. I like to write about all kinds of topics, but my favorites tend to be education, media literacy, and Asian-American culture. In my free time, I enjoy reading action/thriller or dystopian books. My current favorite book series is the Orphan X series by Gregg Hurwitz. You might also catch me surfing the web to learn more about my latest topics of interest.If you have any questions, comments, or ideas, feel free to contact me at [email protected].I hope we can have a great school year together!Positions over the years:2023-2024: Staff reporter/copy editor2024-2025: Assistant editor2025-2026: Print editor
