Zephyniis Wharton, Opinion Editor

My name is Zephyniis but most people call me Zephy, and this year I’m SNN’s Opinion Editor! I’m really passionate about journalism and I think that it’s super cool that through journalism I am able to help people better understand the things that are going on around us. Through journalism, I can also help people form their own opinions about an event and their actions toward what they will do about the problems or issues going on around us. I also love music a lot. I collect vinyl and play guitar! I can’t wait to work with you guys and I’m so excited to see what we will do with SNN this year!
