About me

I am a student at Valley City State University, and have been working in newspapers for over 20 years. I worked mostly in design and editorial, however after being downsized again from yet another position, I am working on finishing my bachelors in communication in journalism. While I may not return to newspapers, I still hold a great deal of love for them, and stress their importance in a world of flashy tv journalism that might push emotion over substance. I'm hoping to learn more about sports journalism in this course, as I have never been in a sports department in previous jobs. One of the few sports I follow is currenlty not being held due to COVID: Women's flat-track roller derby.
