My name is Sarah, I’m 20 years old and I am a communications/broadcast journalism major at California State University, Fullerton. I believe everyone has a story and I want to help share those stories. I have a passion for sports. I played sports growing up including: soccer, basketball, track and field, softball, volleyball, and powder puff football.

Emily Lee
Born and raised in Taiwan, journalism in general is not a culturally accepted field. The belief is that there are only so many people who can make a living with the skill. Coming to the U.S., where English is the main means of communication, was a real struggle. It takes a lot of courage to pursue a field where your writing is carefully looked at. But my passion for storytelling and producing defeats both obstacles. I never regret my choice, because I get to do what I love: storytelling.
