"It's Jynn. Just, Jynn."
And anybody who adds a 'y' or 'ifer' to the end of it isn't paying much attention.
​
When I was a kid, everybody told me I talked too much and asked too many questions. I guess, as it turns out, they were right.
​
Journalism is my passion, and although I'm not sure where in the field I want to end up, I know it's the only path for me. I've always been a writer, and it wasn't until my junior year of high school when I discovered newspaper. My senior year I was Editor in Chief, and from that moment on there was no turning back.
​
I've since gone on to work for the North Texas Daily, the school paper for the University of North Texas, where I wrote news as a Staff Writer and was a Design and Copy Editor. I've also written for the Tomball Magnolia Tribune (a small paper from my home town) and have enjoyed an internship at Radio One Dallas, where I broadened my horizons and even had a little air time. Most recently, I completed a summer internship at the Gotham Gazette in New York City, and will be representing Texas in Salon's Young American project.
​
I grew up overseas, which has helped me learn to adapt and be able to talk to a wide variety of people. I love learning new things, and like to think I always have an open mind. I'm looking forward to making this blog not only to motivate myself to practice my skills, but to share a little bit of my thoughts with the world.
​
Thank you for embarking on this journey with me,
​
