Minus all the superficial things she seeks joy in, Carter’s biggest source of happiness is her friends, family, teammates, coworkers, and fellow staff members.
Maliah Miskiewicz, Co-Editor in Chief
Maliah Miskiewicz is the Co-Editor in Chief of the Park Press as well as a senior at Wheeling Park High School. When not designing the Press or taking pictures of everything, she devotes the rest of her time filming, anchoring, and doing whatever she can within WPHP.
When not surrounding herself in everything journalism, you’ll find Maliah practicing and competing with the Speech and Debate team where she is not only a State Champion in Humorous Interpretation, but also a qualifier for Pennsylvania's State Championship. Maliah is also the Humorous and Dramatic Interpretation Squad Captain of the team, where she guides her teammates on the road toward the 45th state championship.

Maliah is proud to have been a member of the Wheeling Park Press during the revival era of our paper, where our staff only consisted of 16 members who re-built our paper from the bottom up… #FoundingFather. She started as merely a Staff Writer, moved her way up to help develop an official aesthetic for the Park Press as the Design Editor, and now is proud to take on her title of Co-Editor Chief.
