I am 25 years old and despite parental objections, I choose to become a journalist. Print might be might be dying a slow death, but I'm here for the long haul--no matter how financially devastating.
I am recent college graduate from the University of West Florida in Pensacola, Florida. I am a few months into my first job as a reporter at the Madison County Journal in Ridgeland Ms.
I have been inspired by many journalist who looked beyond the surface and took risk. These journalist include:
Bernstien and Woodward, Nellie Bly, Leon Dash, Jessica Mitford, and Martha Gelhorn.
I also admire Gary Ghioto, and Bruce Swain two professors who are passionate about the power of written words.
