I am 15-years-old and a working sports writer. I want to be a journalist when I graduate from college. I joined a journalism club in the 4th grade and now take classes in journalism. I write a sports column for mlb.com/kids, a weekly sports column in a local newspaper, and have had articles published. My favorite thing to do is to interview professional athletes, where my readers can learn about the person, not just their accomplishments. Some famous interviews have been Roger Clemens, Barry Bonds, Yao Ming, Craig Biggio, Randy Johnson, Eric Gagne, Derek Jeter, Dirk Nowitski, Andy Pettitte, Carlos Beltran, Josh Beckett, and Greg Maddux to name a few. It is an awesome job, and I am so grateful for it.
