The Penn State Alumni AssociationWhat’s been happening: Since graduation, I have spent my career in the sports field. I have worked for an international wire service, delivering sports data in real-time, 24/7, 365 days of the year to clients worldwide. The highlight of my journalism career has been two trips to cover the Olympic games. In 2004, I spent a month in Athens, Greece for the Summer Olympics. Four years later, three colleagues and I traveled halfway around the world for a month in Beijing, China. Following 17 days of 16-hour work days, we spent some time seeing the country, including The Great Wall, Tiannamen Square and the Summer Palace. I even etched my name and school on the Wall. |
