Boomika stayed in the Wildcat Tribune because she really loved the community and how dedicated and genuine everyone is. She is in her fourth year at the Tribune now, and has been interviewing high profile guests with the journalism non-profit Headliners in Education for a while now. Boomika’s goal for journalism this year is to hopefully make a documentary, and create more podcasts. If she could be anyone else in the Tribune, she would be Lauren or Nayja because they are the only last remaining sane seniors.
