Wesley Sotomayor, Staff Writer

Hi, my name is Wesley Sotomayor, and I’m a sophomore at Foran High School. This is my first year taking journalism, and I am a staff writer. I picked journalism because I was told I would enjoy it, and I like learning about the people and places around me. At Foran, I am involved in volleyball, indoor and outdoor track, and choir. In my free time, I enjoy hanging out with friends, being with family, and playing/doing sports. Some other things about myself are that I have three cats, I love fall, and I like working out.
