Interview

What was your first job as a journalist?

A staff writer for my high school paper

Who do you wish followed you?

Lee Jenkins, Holly Rowe and Kate Fagan

Did you work for your high school newspaper? If so, what did you do there?

Yes; I was the editor in chief for two years.

Aside from your own, what's your favorite publication to read?

ESPN, Sports Illustrated and the Kansas City Star

What's the most common misperception about your beat?

That sports don't have anything to do with the rest of the news going on in the world. Sports are a mirror for society.
