“As the Innovation Fellow, I got to explore a side of the news industry that is still new and evolving. This exposure helped me define my interests more clearly, making me more interested in pursuing graduate study to research the evolution of journalism in greater detail. I also learned more about the work that I want to do as a journalist.”

What’s next: Working at the Associated Press office in New York City
