Hi Rangers, my name is Alli, and I am the Editor-in-Chief this year.
I took over as EIC last semester and cannot wait for another fun year.
I am a senior mass communication major, when I graduate in May I hope to start a career in sports marketing.
I am involved with several clubs on campus including newspaper, Delta Zeta and Native American Student Association. I love being a part of Delta Zeta as it has helped me to step out of my comfort zone and has given me the chance to travel, which I found out I love to do.
During the summer I got the opportunity to intern with the Tulsa Oilers and take photos of their games as well as create graphics for them.
I also did an internship with the Suave Report which is an online sports publication.
I have always liked sports since I was little, and it is a lot of fun working in them now.
My favorite teams are the Oklahoma City Thunder and Jacksonville Jaguars. I also like the Kansas City Chiefs since my whole family likes them.
Some other things about me are that I am from Okeene and have three sisters, one who also attends NWOSU.
I have two tattoos one is a sister tattoo with my sisters that says “no matter what.” The other is a Daffodil and a bell flower. I got it the week before my freshman year of college.
The Daffodil represents new beginnings so I thought it was fitting for the time I got it. I added the Bell flower because that week my childhood dog, Belle, died.
I wanted to get something besides a pawprint or heart to represent her so I decided on the Bell flowers, which matched the Daffodil I was already going to get perfectly.
I also love music some of my favorite artists are Dan and Shay, whom I have seen twice in concert. I also like Taylor Swift, Zach Bryan, Shania Twain and Sam Hunt.
Another thing I enjoy is reality TV shows. I love watching shows like “Big Brother”, “American Idol”, “The Perfect Match” and “Dance Moms.”
While I love reality TV shows I also have a few comfort shows I like to watch these are “Fire Country,” “Gilmore Girls,” “New Girl” and “One Tree Hill.”
I also love reading and mostly read romance and mystery thrillers. My favorites of these are “The Perfect Marriage” and “The Cheat Sheet.”
Two of my other favorite books that are not romance or mystery thriller are “Carrie Soto is Back” and “Fourth Wing.”
My two favorite authors are Jeneva Rose and Sarah Adams.
On the off chance I get free time I love to spend it with family and friends doing pretty much anything.
The Northwestern News and my classes have made me realize I love photography as well. With photography I have had the opportunity to take pictures at Indoor Football League games and photograph a wedding in Orlando, Florida. Where I discovered how much I love Disney and have been to Disney World twice in the past year.
I love Northwestern and writing for Northwestern News and the amazing opportunities it has presented me. I am excited about the staff we have this year and getting to know all of them.
