In The Making: An International Journalist

This charming young lady in her early 20s, is all geared up to take life up on her sleeves and hit for a career in the ever exiting and lively field of journalism. Being raised by a single mother, Amanda has had a childhood different from others. She is the first person in her family to go for masters and has lots of dreams in her eyes, oozing confidence and a very positive approach towards life and future.
Career, passion and life:
Music and journalism are her passion and she blends the two really well. She was 18 when she had her first stint with journalism. While acting as the in-charge of the school music show she interviewed Jhony brawl, the lead singer of her favourite band Razor light. For her, it was like a dream come true, nervously shaking sitting in the backstage on an amplifier on a cold san fransisco night she conducted her very first interview and since then there was no looking back.
She made several short documentaries in a very short career span and a few of them aired on television as well. The aspect of going out, meeting new people, exploring new places and experiencing the unexpected are the few things that thrills her towards a career in journalism. “Music makes me calm and happy”, says she. Though, rock is her favourite genre and bands like Kaiser chiefs, specials, good shoes and north-westerns are her favourite bands. She loves going for concerts and never misses on the gigs in town. Music and journalism seems to be the joy of her life and with a very focussed approach towards life, she hasn’t got time for love or flings. Presently, she is in London persuing her masters in journalism and exploring the fantastic world of opportunities around her. She wishes to work all over the world, under different circumstances and situations- the traits of a true international journalist.
