Hello Mavs! I am Shinnosuke Enanoria, and this is my first year in journalism. I have been drawn to writing ever since I was a kid. Writing brings me joy, I especially love when I get to feel like a reporter, sharing news with readers. Writing news articles and features about volleyball, “how to be a student athlete” or “how to take care of yourself mentally.”

 I want to inform other student athletes that it is not only important to take care of yourself, but to also focus on your studies. That is essential If you want to play the sport you love at the next level. 

Outside of journalism I am an athlete, I play Volleyball for a club called Paradox. My role on the team is right-side setter, depending on whether the other setter is with us when we are at a tournament. If not, I can switch roles, making me a hitter. My aunties and the Japanese National Team inspired me to start playing five years ago. 

Another one of my hobbies is playing card games like Pokemon TCG and One Piece TCG. I hope to reactivate the pokemon club again, the original supporter of the club was transferred to a different school and has asked me and another student if we could help keep it thriving.
