Over the past two years, I have developed a well-rounded editorial skill set through my work at SUU News. I wrote and published over 80 articles, covered campus events, conducted interviews, and edited my colleagues’ work, growing from reporter in September 2024 to Life Section Editor in August 2025 within the same newsroom. i'm the first international student to occupy thispostion ans i couldn't be more proud because I’m dedicated to what I am doing and am ready to learn and try to achieve my lifelong dream. That experience taught me how to meet deadlines, maintain editorial standards, and collaborate closely with teams.
