I am a Detroit native and junior at Central Michigan University (Mount Pleasant, Mich.) majoring in journalism with a concentration in public relations and minoring in media design, production and technology.
Currently, I am a reporter for Central Michigan Life, CMU's student newspaper, and have been for two years. Since I have been at CM Life, I have reported on a wide range of topics such as the 2008 shooting at Northern Illinois University, Multicultural Greek organizations, and was one of the reporters on CM Life's Mount Pleasant 24 Multimedia Project.
I am a big fan of hip-hop music and when I am not working on something for CM Life, I blog about the happenings in my local music scene. I started Tha 'A' Side in 2009 and since then, I have spent a lot of time working to improve the blog while developing friendships in the Detroit entertainment scene. I am a self-proclaimed social media addict and am familiar with every major social network out including Facebook and Twitter.
