Trinity Alicia (2018-22) is a digital producer at The 74 focusing on Education, a freelance writer, the founder of Media Moments, and was one of the five founding members for SDSU's chapter of the National Association of Black Journalists.
Listen as Trinity describes how giving campus tours as a student helped develop her storytelling techniques, meet future coworkers at The Daily Aztec, and how an actor on a tour helped secure one of her first internships. Now she continues to help student journalists by organizing industry panels for Media Moments.
At The 74, a non-profit news website focusing on education, Trinity explains how immersing yourself in a beat develops story ideas, using charts and timelines to bring those stories to life, and keeping up with all the latest trends in her weekly education newsletter.
