I am a Journalism Graduate with over 5 years experience in both national and international media. Leaving school I knew what I wanted to do. Getting there and doing in however was another story. I spent a year studying arts before deciding to take the plunge and study Journalism. It all began from that day. Within months I was published and my experience grew as the months went on. During my years in college I wrote for several different publications and after graduating I decided to live an Indian life for a month and after travelling to Bangalore I started working in Mid-Day newspaper writing previews, reviews and news stories.
Upon returning I started out with online writing. I started an internship with Irishdeafkids.ie which helped me learn a lot very fast. This was meant to last months but turned into a year. During the course of the year I undertook tasks in writing, sales, research, photography, interviews and social media marketing.
After a year I decided to move on and enrolled in Webactivate. A government funded program that trains participants in the skills required to set up businesses with an online presence.
So that’s my experience and all of it is documented here so see if there is something you are interested in.
