As I’ve been writing my personal essays for a couple post-graduation opportunities, I’ve been doing a lot of self-reflecting. Maybe a little too much of it, but enough to crank out some good essays. What I’ve been writing about mostly though is how I’ve become person I am today– a journalist. After a lot of writing and thinking, I’ve collaborated a list of qualities I think a journalist must have/be. . I believe it takes a lot more internally and personally to be a good journalist.
