Esteban Varela, Social Media Manager
In his first year as Social media manager and writer, Esteban Varela is hoping to get more involved with school by joining The Downey Legend. Varela has found that writing is one of the ways he likes to express himself the most. He plans to get his bachelor's degree in English, and is hoping to pursue a career in journalism or teaching. Aside from writing, he also likes to express himself through his jewelry, which he sells from his own small business.
“ My junior year I was enrolled in an English class that really pushed for self expression in multiple forms of writing, Varela stated.” “We came across our poetry unit and I started to find myself writing outside of school as an outlet and as a way to express myself like I hadn’t before.”
