Alyson Cerna is the Sports Editor for The Mirror, the award-winning student newspaper and website at Van Nuys High School in Los Angeles. In her third year in journalism, she’s enjoyed writing about topics ranging from powdered wigs to Bronny James and everything in between. As an avid boba consumer, she believes her addiction has largely contributed to her local boba shop’s annual earnings. Her frequent indulgence in music and content from the band My Chemical Romance has solidified them as her favorite band, with her closet full of their merchandise. Above all, she enjoys surrounding herself with anything silly and whimsical, whether it’s watching “My Little Pony” or spiraling through an array of literature. She plans to pursue a degree in philosophy with hopes of later becoming a lawyer.
