What does journalism mean to you? 

Journalism to me means reporting on the facts. I think the main function of a journalist is to inform the public with unbiased information. 

What are your interests? 

I am most interested in history, the sciences, and writing.

What is your favorite quote?

“I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen: not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else.” -C.S Lewis

What did you want to be when you were 5? 

I wanted to be President of the USA.

What are three little things that brighten your day? 

  1. Coming to Westminster and being in a Christlike environment.
  2. Praying to God in the mornings.
  3. When a reporter can ignore political or cultural tensions and tell the truth plain and simple.
