Tell us about a great experience or opportunity you've had here at Annenberg? 
Throughout my time at USC Annenberg, working with Annenberg Radio News has been one of my best experiences. Not only do they provide first-hand experience working in the field and developing your craft, the program also gives students the flexibility to pursue their individual interests with stories that affect the local community.

What makes Annenberg special? 
Annenberg is a one of a kind learning institution because students not only come together in the classroom, they grow as an active community through all the wonderful groups and organizations that call the Annenberg halls home. Whether it's during the wild lunch hour, just in between classes or even late at night in the digital lab, people are always welcoming and willing to help one another.

How does your major (and minor) fit into your life's plan? 
Being a Broadcast Journalism major with an emphasis in Sports Media, my educational experience complements quite well with my aspirations of becoming a sports play-by-play host or even a long-form journalism reporter. My passion for sports and telling a story shines brightest through the craft of journalism, and I expect to continue painting wonderful pictures for as long as I can or at least until they force me to hang up the cleats for good.
