John Ross Amigh

Rhetoric And Professional Writing
Raleigh

Summary

Currently a Junior at NC State pursuing a degree in English with a concentration in Rhetoric and Professional writing. I have a passion for different styles of writing, as well as news communication.

I am an active member of the student-run newspaper, Technician at NC State. This work with the student newspaper has increased my interest and skills in news writing and publishing as well as teaching me how to communicate from an unbiased source.


I believe the variety of job experiences I have had have given me many different skills and perspectives to include in my own professional work when communicating with others from varying backgrounds.
