Mikayla Dumas
Mikayla Dumas is a sophomore at JFKMHS. This is her first year as a contributor to the school’s newspaper, The Torch. She has always had a keen interest in writing but decided on taking journalism during quarantine when doing a personal research project to pass time. As this is her first year in journalism, she hopes the class will assist her growth in the field. Her hobbies include reading, listening to music, scrolling through Pinterest, and hanging out with friends. Mikayla’s motivation comes from her peers and seeing what they’ve accomplished, as well as what her older sister has done academically. Her goals after high school are to attend college and major in journalism. As much as she swears she hates school, she sincerely enjoys it and the atmosphere that it provides.
