Working as a beat reporter for two years prior to j-school it became apparent to me that reporting techniques are changing and that I have to evolve with them to be effective in this brave new world. That being said, my natural proclivities pull me toward long-form writing and investigative reporting, and those are the courses and projects I’ve focused on during my first year at Cal. My j-school experience so far has been kind of a tug-of-war between my passion for in-depth writing and my desire to stay competitive in the field.
