She told us on the second day of school that we would blink and it would be June 2nd. I didn’t believe her, but Dr. Dirda couldn’t have been more right.
North Allegheny gave me countless opportunities to reach my goals and to build upon my interests. I couldn’t be more grateful for my time here. It all made me into a better person, from expanding my skills in journalism, writing, photography, and more to finding my best friends and building relationships.
This was my first year taking journalism, and to put it lightly it was one of the best things I have ever done. The class brought me out of my comfort zone and allowed me to find my passion for writing. I also got the opportunity to build up a portfolio that will help me in the future.
Next year, I will be attending Point Park University and majoring in Sports Communications. I knew from a very young age that I wanted to work in sports in one way or another. After a significant injury, I knew that I wasn’t going to be playing sports. I started reading everything about NFL football and sports in general. From studying drafts, watching film, listening to interviews, and diving into that whole world, I finally found what I loved. I’m so thrilled to be living my dream next year and hopefully getting a gig with a Pittsburgh team in the near future.
I’m so grateful for the good years at NA, but now it’s on to the next chapter for me.
