As Opinion Editor of the Pasadena City College Courier, it is my job to pitch opinion stories every week, advise writers for the opinion section, edit stories as they come in, and ensure that all stories are suitable for publishing.
I began writing for the Courier in Spring of 2024, during which time I was a staff writer and Assistant Editor for the Lifestyle section. I have reported on PCC’s Facilities Master Plan and written opinion pieces calling out politicians and out-of-touch comedians.
My goal for the opinion section this semester is to ensure that it honestly conveys the thoughts and opinions of our staff and keep our finger on the pulse of the current goings-on in politics, pop culture, and more.
Outside of the Courier, I am an english literature student, an actor, and founder of PCC’s Creative Writing Club.
