About me
I enjoy attending networking events and meeting new people. I have the passion for writing and working for the media. I hope to become a news reporter in the upcoming years. Currently, I'm honored to work behind the scenes of a top market television station and working on the other aspect of news which is the Public Relations experience. Along with my interest in reporting, I hope to produce my own documentary as well. It's interesting to see how news is being broadcasted day by day and to be involved in the production process.
