I have dreamed of being writer since I was a young child. I remember being about 11 years old when my dad asked me, “Adam, if you could trade places with anybody for a day, who would you choose?” When every answer I came up with was a writer, we had a good idea what I would do with my life.
I am living my dream working as a sports reporter at the Daily Globe in Worthington, Minn. Whenever I find myself caught up in the daily stress of working in the newspaper industry, I like to remind myself that I get to write about sports for a living. It's great.
Prior to working at the Daily Globe, I was a sports clerk and intern at the Forum of Fargo-Moorhead, contributed to High School Sports View magazine and worked at the MSUM Advocate student newspaper.
I graduated from Minnesota State University Moorhead with a bachelor of science in Multimedia Journalism.
