Hey there, I'm Sabrina. I'm taking journalism writing this term to become a better member of the news team. Just last term I joined The Commuter team as the Photo Editor, which for me is super exciting because I haven't had the opportunity to work with a group in a long time. But the best part is, it's a fantastic group of people, so I want to do my best.
I am a Journalism major, along with Public Health. I took Photojournalism last term for two reasons; to expand my talent as a photographer, and to impress my cousin who is a photojournalist and lives half way around the world in Uganda working on reporting about Nodding Sickness. But those two reason lead to a "ah-ha!" moment for me. I have a passion for reporting, interviewing, getting the scoop and getting the shot. This term I'm so thrilled to find that sweet formula for writing a riveting article.
Who I am outside of the classroom is a mosaic of hobbies. I am a mom to an amazing and clever little girl, her 5th birthday is this week. So it comes in handy that I love planning events, baking, cooking, and gift giving. I am also a daughter, we live on my parents forest property in an apartment me and my dad built while I was pregnant. I take care of my parents, they are disabled and aging gracefully. I share responsibilities on their property and I have my own year round garden. I even have a garden stand during the summer months! I'm always fixing, building something like lego tables, making something like lamps, and redecorating to make rooms more useful. My latest project is a mouse proof pantry from reclaimed furniture I found in estate sales. And in the spring I will be emptying out the barn and pool room to become an indoor playground and useable pool and tropical greenhouse again. I think my friends would say I'm into makeup, I just think of it as another art form. But I would have to say the thing I am most passionate about, that gives me most joy, is being a helper, knowing I truly helped a friend is the best feeling in the world.
Some goals I have for myself this term; to get the best information during an interview. To learn how to record an interview. To learn how to video an interview.
I would like to shake something up without crossing the line.

LBCC Theater what are we doing?
With the death of the theater department, what are we doing with the space?
What shows will be available in the Performance Center?
How do troupes rent it?
What benefit does the Center have for LBCC students?
I want to highlight the missing program while encouraging the space to be filled. Show there is still creativity thriving in our college. If the space is resting during covid times I want to write about precautions and safety along with permanent change in live shows.
