About

Real Talk: The purpose of journalism is not to tell you what to think, but to tell you what to think about and then the rest is up to you. A professor once asked me why I was pursuing a Master’s degree in journalism when it seems as though print news is dying and all the topics are depressing. I said, “Because the more people know, the better equipped they will be to change all of that.”
