Have you ever used a typewriter?

Sadly, no, though it showed up (three times!) as a challenge on The Amazing Race, so maybe I should learn how to use one :D

What does it mean to be a journalist?

Always approaching new stories or ideas with an open mind. A plan is good, but an open mind is what lets you go where the story goes.

What advice can you offer to aspiring journalists?

Be fearless and persistent. And trust your instincts.
