Senior Zaki Humayun is returning for his second year as a writer for The Californian. When he's not busy writing the best stories known to mankind, he's probably being punched in the face, physically and mentally as he enjoys kickboxing and studying for the MCAT during his free time. You can always rely on him to get his best work done 20 minutes before the deadline.
