Senior Kyla Ulug is starting her fourth year of journalism. On top of being a reporter, Ulug expresses her creative side through freestyle dance and being a president of UPA’s Daebak Club. Her many passions include thrifting, trying new baking and cooking recipes, photography, reading and venturing around the bay for new cafes. She is best described by two words: dependable and friendly, which is why she thrives best around people who are inviting and have a strong sense of self. In the future, Ulug aspires to be a rich aunt with a cat and a masters degree. She hopes to stay in the Bay Area because of its richness in culture and peaceful lifestyle. In the previous year, Ulug wrote a piece on BeReal: the rise of the new app and how the UPA community felt about it. Writing the article helped her explore her writer’s voice more deeply and regain her appreciation for article-writing. Ulug also did a broadcast video asking students what music they were currently listening to, which helped her gain a glimpse of the student body’s music taste. As a reporter and editor this year, she hopes to explore more food review coverage and grow in her leadership abilities.
