My name is Gwen Suffredini and I am a double emphasis english major with a professional writing minor which means that I am always writing something whether it is creative or critical. I am also currently in UWP 104C which is a writing class on journalism that is teaching me the skills of news writing. I have taken multiple creative writing courses including nonfiction, fiction, and writing based on writing in resistance which strives to ensure that the voices of writers are not shut down and shows how writing can fight back against the unfairness in our world. I enjoy writing about the community that surrounds Davis due to the fact that it is so centered around the students and the different interests and paths that everyone at this university is taking. I love to write in my free time and I am especially interested in writing about sports at UC Davis because I am looking into potentially doing something in that field in the future. My main career goal is to join a publishing company as either an editor or an agent so this position would be a good stepping stone for entering the workforce. In winter quarter of this year I also intend on taking a course on professional editing or technical writing.
