ABOUT ME:

From an early age, I have learned to love writing. Due to troubles in reading and speaking in my earlier years, I would spend weeks in the library reading out load anything I could. This helped me read, write and speak better. It was in those halls of books that my love for writing began.

Since then, I have continued to read and write, developing my skills. In the fall of 2010 I reopened the news director position at Radio SLCC (then called Globe Radio). There I oversaw all news stories that were aired on the radio.

Roughly six months later, I became the program director for the entire station. There I wrote and published promos and announcements that would be read over the air.  In addition to this I also assisted in the reformatting of the station and representing the station to faculty and staff in a variety of settings like radio remotes and other station functions.

In the fall on 2011, I transferred to the University of Utah where I am currently working a degree in mass communication.  It is there I hope to gain a greater understanding of how to communicate using the different forms of media that are out there.
