The moment I knew I wanted to be a journalist was while watching the investigative journalism series Frontline on PBS. I watched as cameras captured the image of dead bodies slaughtered and abandoned in a ditch. As a young girl in high school I was shocked but at the same time I was grateful for now I knew what was happening outside of my safe bubble in Saskatchewan. From that moment on I decided that I wanted to help capture the stories of real people.
By pursuing a political science degree I became equipped with tools to see how the world works but I did not want to stop investigating. Luckily for me I discovered an alternate route in journalism.

After graduating from the University of Regina School of Journalism, my path led me to North Battleford where I was a radio reporter and afternoon anchor. I then returned home to Regina, where I continued working on the airwaves and online as a web reporter. Over two years I learned how to post web articles
with no spelling errors, craft a catchy headline that will make someone click
and turn an oversized photo into an eye-catching visual.
I look forward to perfecting those skills and learning a whole lot more as I continue my career as a broadcast journalist.
