I’m Teresa Montanari and I have been in Journalism since the very first day of my sophomore year. I can still remember the day like it was yesterday so it is incredible to me that I’m about to graduate in less than a week! I came into Journalism wanting to be a reporter but I quickly found that meeting deadlines was not my strong suit. Instead, I was drawn to creating graphics and layouts and taking photographs. I came to find how important the visual aspect of a story is. It is what brings the reader in and makes them even want to read the article! Since I came to this realization, I’ve worked my way from reporter to layout editor to the position I currently hold which is creative director. I have loved every single moment in this class. It has helped me determine the career path I would like to take and it exposed talents I would have never uncovered.Thank you to everyone for a great three years! Mwahz
