What journalism means to me: I was introduced to journalism by my brother. Joining the class my junior year I struggled. Writing stories and producing videos was something that I wanted to learn how to do and be better at. Mentors and other members of the staff helped me out throughout the year. They weren’t afraid to highlight my mistakes and encouraged me when I need it. Journalism is more than conducting and interview or working Photoshop. Journalism has taught me how truly to work with others. The Stagg Line is an accepting class that has made me a better student.
Goals on staff and after high school: As my English teacher and Journalism adviser knows, I am a conflicted writer. I struggle with writing, and skills needed for Journalism. This year I want to improve my writing. I want to produce better quality work, highlighting my devotion and passion for the class. I want to also help out my mentee Yalie Ceesay. After high school I plan on attending the Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland.
