Throughout high school, I always loved writing so I knew I wanted to continue that in college. However, I never expected to embark in journalism because I had no prior experience in the field. After meeting the AWOL EICs during my freshman year, I was convinced that this journalism was something that I was willing to try. After having the opportunity to interview a Freegan, I was so intrigued by the process of hearing the stories of other people and then using their quotes to create an article. The process still makes me so happy—the research, the interviews, and then the personal stylistic part of writing an article. I think that I am still drawn to journalism because it provides me with opportunities to hear the stories of others and then highlight their stories to draw attention to a bigger societal issue. I love it :)
