When you walk into the newsroom on UF's campus, it'll be one hectic place but the people inside are one big family. We all work alongside each other for at least four years, build close bonds, act as a source of support and always strive to help each other out when times get tough.
Of those in the newsroom that I am close friends with, I have been able to track down a few of their blogs. What I love the most about working with some of these amazing people is that we all have different interests, strengths and weaknesses. We all are different but come together and mesh to produce some of the most tremendous work you can find.
One of the blog sites I was able to find is for one of my close sports fanatic fan, Courtney Mims.
Courtney has done some AMAZING work during her time at UF both in news and in sports. She has such a great and heart-warming background story as to how she fell into the career path she is now on. She has covered many of the Gator sports teams on campus, such as the men's basketball team and the football team. Courtney will be graduating from UF in December, which is so sad because she's such a fun and helpful person to work with.
Another amazing human-being and music lover (and my former news shift partner in the newsroom) whose blog I've found is Justin Ahlum.
During his time at UF, Justin has had the chance to work for the Florida Alligator (UF's independent student newspaper) as a beat writer and sports reporter. He has also done play-by-play commentary for Union County Radio as well as for several sporting events with UF sports. Asides from being a sports anchor this semester, Justin is also keeping a blog on all things music and reviews of the latest albums and songs being released.
Finally, one of the other fabulous people I get to see each week is Veronika Vernachio.
Not only is she my co-anchor on Wednesday's but she is also an outstanding reporter and journalist. She has had the opportunity to intern with WPBF in West Palm Beach and WKMG in Orlando. In addition to that, she has worked as both a reporter and anchor for WUFT news. She finds the most interesting stories and always does them full-heartedly. Just like Courtney, Veronika will be leaving UF in December and don't know what I'm going to do without her next to me at the desk next semester.
Stay tuned for my next post where I'll introduce three more amazing people I get to share UF's Innovative News Center with.
