As the semester ends, I'd like to showcase some of the work I have done for my Reporting I class throughout the semester. I wrote a Q&A story, did an event coverage story for AthHalf and a story about The Classic Center Arena. Check out my portfolio here: ctlsites.uga.edu/rp-ayaanbak…
My favorite story I wrote while covering business and consumer news was my Beat Q&A story with businesswoman Kiarra Trammell. Check out the story here: ctlsites.uga.edu/rp-ayaanbak…
I'm very grateful to @UGAGrady for teaching me how to become a journalist. I've gotten to cover many different types of events, learned about different story types and used them. I learned many interviewing skills, new writing techniques along with learning to cover a beat.

Walton Gas has been the presenting sponsor for AthHalf since 2019. Many employees such as Sara, have participated in the AthHalf half marathon for many years.
