I’ve never heard of the Sunshine awards before but I was
nominated by a lovely fellow journalist who I had met through the Northrop Boot
Camp, Kara Newhouse. Kara is a blogger (check out her blog here) and also is an
education reporter at Lancaster Online. I also found out a fun fact about her
during dinner one night at the conference—she interned at the HRC in
Washington, D.C.
11 random facts about me
-I used to cry every time I watched Disney’s Cinderella. I
didn’t want Cinderella to leave! Now, I really can’t stand watching Disney
movies (I know! The horror!)
-I play with my hair—a lot. I am not sure if it is a nervous
habit or what, but it is something I just do.
-Through my job at PGN, I’ve learned a lot about my
interests. Before I worked here, I forgot about the branches of government and
to be honest, wasn’t super interested in what the government did. Now, you
can’t stop me from talking about it.
-Also through my job, I’ve learned that one day, I hope to
serve as a press representative or director for a progressive politician or a
communications director for a progressive organization.
-I used to be the biggest theater nerd—now I can’t even
speak in front of people without stumbling on my words.
-I was in a sorority for two semesters before I decided to
quit. It was the best decision I have ever made. Not only was it draining my
bank account, but my grades were going down. I still kept my close friends from
it and I learned that sometimes, it is good to let things go.
-My girlfriend and I are currently looking for apartments to
rent. I’ve never lived with a significant other before but when you know, you
know…ya know?
-My English degree did nothing for my career. It was my
valuable experience at my school’s paper that got me where I am.
-I am a proud West Chester University ram.
-I am too hard on myself sometimes when really, I have a lot
to be proud of.
-I could have mac n cheese all day, every day if I could.
