What does journalism mean to you? 

To me, journalism means writing freely, creatively, and writing something that catches the attention of others. 

What are your interests? 

Along with writing, I’m interested in sports, music, and anything that involves an active activity. 

What is your favorite quote?

My favorite quote is by Eleanor Roosevelt, “The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.”

What did you want to be when you were 5? 

When I was 5 years old I wanted to be a teacher. 

What are three little things that brighten your day? 

Three things that brighten my day are seeing my friends, my dog greeting me in the morning, and a good breakfast.
