Sophia Mastro is a first year staff member for Achona. After school, you can find her playing Lacrosse almost everyday of the week or even spending time in Environmental Club.  When Mastro gets around to free time, she spends it either playing the piano, or creating videos on iMovie. As much as she enjoys Science, Mastro plans on becoming a veterinarian in years to come. Even though she angled towards being a veterinarian, Mastro is yet to discover her future college. While she loves to browse around on BuzzFeed, Twitter, and Facebook, Mastro is most passionate about sports, more specifically Lacrosse. Being a senior, she is most excited about graduation at the end of the year.
