Gabriella Pilat

Gabriella is thrilled to be the editor of the Blue Devil Beat for the second year! You can find her in many places throughout the school as she is currently serving as the Student Council President and Varsity Cheer Captain. She is very involved in the theatre program and is getting ready to play the White Queen in the upcoming production of Alice Through the Looking Glass. She is excited to continue her work on the paper and encourage a place where students can use their voice to educate and inspire others!

Mia Winkler

Mia Winkler is currently a junior at Kenmore West and is a full IB student. She is involved in Link Crew, Community Club, and the theater program, and she loves to read, draw, watch movies, and play bass guitar in her free time. She is active at school events and loves to volunteer any time she can. She believes in the importance of creativity and how art in any form is just as important as every other subject. She hopes that people feel they can express themselves in the newspaper (while still focusing on journalism). Mia wants to continue making the newspaper even better every month with Mrs. Lee and Gabby, and she is so excited to be working with people just as passionate as her about the world around her.
