Introducing…. Nicquel T. Terry

Hi, my name is Nicquel Terry and I am a 21-year-old senior at Michigan State University studying journalism with a specialization in sociology. I’m originally from Saginaw,. where my mother and most of my family resides. I consider myself to be a very sweet, humble and ambitious individual.

I’ve had significant experience in the realms of both print and broadcast journalism. In 2007, I landed my first professional internship at The Saginaw News (Saginaw, Mich.) where I covered a wide range of community events and human interest stories. In my second year of college, I began writing for my student newspaper, The State News. In the following years, I went on to intern at The Columbus Dispatch (Columbus, Ohio) and WLAJ ABC 3 (Lansing, Mich.). This past summer I interned on the metro and business desks for the Detroit Free Press.

When I’m not engaged in journalism, I enjoy mentoring, watching movies, attempting to cook, shopping and spending time with close friends and family. I plan to graduate in May of 2010 and I’m eager to pursue my passion for journalism. I hope to to write for a top-market newspaper or magazine someday and produce multimedia packages for the publication’s Web site.

Here is my first shot at recording sequences in my JRN 400 class…
