MEET THE STAFF OF "THE REPORT"
Staff for "The Report" are nominated by RPTA faculty for demonstrating excellent writing skills in RPTA classes. Student writers then coordinate with the editor and faculty advisor Dr. Brian Greenwood to develop and write articles. The editor for 2010-2011 is Anthonia Edgren (RPTA '12), and Kevin Mould (RPTA '14) and Kim Saavedra (RPTA '13) are returning staff members who began in Fall 2010, and this quarter we welcomed a new staff writer to our team, Kalli Sandberg (RPTA '13).
Here's more about the staff:
Anthonia Edgren (RPTA '12), Editor
Edgren is a second year RPTA student concentrating in Sport Management and Special Events. She has been on The Report staff for two years and truly enjoys the opportunity to be Editor. Edgren hopes to intern with her hometown team, the San Diego Chargers this summer and has a career goal of one day being the General Manager for the team. In her free time, her favorite outdoor activity is running in Poly Canyon and at Pismo Beach.
Kevin Mould (RPTA '14), Staff Writer
Mould is excited to be a part of The Report staff. A freshman from Mountain View he hopes to concentrate in Sports Management, a tribute to his love for the San Jose Sharks. Why he chose RPTA: “All through high school I knew I wanted to do something related to sports business, and this seemed like the perfect way to do that!”
Kalli Sandberg (RPTA '13), Staff Writer
Sandberg is a second year RPTA student from Marin County, CA (just North of the Golden Gate bridge) who plans on combining event planning and tourism as concentrations. She chose RPTA because "RPTA gives me an opportunity to combine my leadership and organizational skills with fun and amazing staff, students, and classes. Most of my friends just nickname the major 'FUN,' and I couldnt be happier with my decision." Sandberg comes to "The Report" after having shown her writing abilities both in the classroom and in the blogosphere.
Kim Saavedra (RPTA '13), Staff Writer
A second year RPTA student, Saavedra knows how "truly awesome" it is to be an RPTA major. Look for a highlight on Saavedra in spring 2011, as she details her experience in being chosen as one of four to participate in the NASCAR mentor program. Next fall Kim will be studying abroad in Spain and looks forward to the new experiences it will bring. Carrying that adventuresome attitude, Saavedra explains that the reason she chose RPTA: "I was looking for a way to have fun for the rest of my life doing what I love!”
