Northern Star
My time with the Northern Star was incredibly short. My only regret is not having joined the staff sooner.
I was in the unique position of coming to the Star directly as an editor, as a pinch hitter of sorts, to lead the opinion section halfway through the Spring 2021 semester. Upon arrival, I was amazed by the speed and spirit in which writers and editors produced the news. Imposter syndrome loomed. Could I do it, would I be up to par?
Thanks to the kindness and guidance of my fellow editors, mentors and the patience of my staff during the growing pains as I assumed my role, I was able to learn and improve so much.
