Before graduating @montclair_ccom , I knew I wanted to use my passion to give others a platform to share their stories. So, I got radio DJ certified and hosted a semester long radio show called All Access, where I interviewed athletes and people who work in sports media. Throughout the semester, I was able to interview 16 people whose stories and experiences reminded me why I love being an athlete and studying sports communication. Thank you to everyone who was a part of the show and for everyone who tuned in. Forever grateful for this opportunity! 🎙️ @wmscradio
