Dominic Niyo, editor

Aloha, my name is Dominic Niyo, Class of 2026. I serve as an editor for The Pinion, where I oversee both print and online publications. In addition to this role, I mentor new journalism students and guide them through the process. I’m also a graphic designer, photographer, and manage our social media platforms.

I joined newswriting as a freshman to explore the journalism industry, as I was inspired by reporters covering the 2020 pandemic. This year, I returned to continue The Pinion’s 100-year legacy of delivering insightful content. Through my work, I aim to inspire thoughtful conversations and highlight stories that reflect the values of our community.
