Interview
Have you ever used a typewriter?
Yes, but not for work my grandparents used to have an old one that I played with.
How is social media changing news?
Well I could write an entire paper on this. Mostly it has made the news cycle much more rapid meaning stories need to be published quickly.
Who's your favorite fictional journalist?
Triumph from Conan O'Brian
What does it mean to be a journalist?
I think it means telling people's stories and being able to be someone people can depend on.
What tools and software do you use to do your job?
I use Adobe audition and word press a lot for the school's radio station.
What's your favorite social network?
Thats a tough one... maybe Twitter or X whatever floats your boat, but I don't know if I really have a favorite.
Who do you wish followed you?
I think it would be cool if someone from the Minnesota Twins media would be cool, but I don't typically worry about followers.
Did you work for your high school newspaper? If so, what did you do there?
I did for one issue. I wanted to cover our sports teams, but I only made it into one issue, because of other commitments.
What story are you most proud of writing or working on?
I would say just how far I have come as a writer and a journalist. I think I have really grown in the last few years.
What advice can you offer to aspiring journalists?
Know if you love the profession, because it is a grind and it can be easy to get burned out.
What's the best pitch you ever got?
Not necessarily a pitch, but I woke up to gunshots down the block from my college apartment and knew that there was a story.
What's your favorite drink?
Oh definitely pop. It can be Pepsi, Coke or RC I love pop.
