In her words: I like to think I can tell stories. Stories about the life of a subpoena, stories about rival visiting football fans, stories about riots, same-sex commitment ceremonies, an 81-year-old college football coach and presidential candidates.
I used to tell these stories through print articles, but I’ve transitioned full speed from my print background into multimedia. If a photo is worth a thousand words, then video has to be worth at least a million and I think my stories have got a mouthful to say.
I decided at a young age that I would be a journalist. Having lived in one place for my entire life, I decided that journalism would be a way to see the world and write about the people I meet and places I visit. A job that includes traveling would be a dream come true and I want to do as much multimedia work as possible. I like change and the pace of journalism gives me that. Newsrooms are also changing and I’d be able to contribute to that transition after I graduate this semester.
