Interview
What was your first job as a journalist?
My current one -- working at Wetpaint TV. I started as an intern, am now an Editor.
What's your favorite social network?
Twitter. Quick, easy, funny, fun -- and occasionally revolutionary.
Did you work for your high school newspaper? If so, what did you do there?
I wrote reviews of books, TV, and movies. Once I wrote an editorial about why I didn't want to start using iPods. I was rightfully mocked.
What advice can you offer to aspiring journalists?
Write, read, ask questions, get experience however you can.
