What was your first job as a journalist?

As a Photojournalist, I first was commissioned by The Associated Press(AP) to cover Victims of Ferry Fire incident in Barishal City, Bangladesh.

Have you ever used a typewriter?

Yes, I did. I still love to play with a typewriter.

What does it mean to be a journalist?

It means more of a responsibility than a job to me. The absolute power to use my work change people’s lives in positive ways are really what make this job different from many others.
