Kate Sheppard is a wonderful example of someone who started from nothing and worked her way to the top. As a 2006 graduate from Ithaca College, Sheppard had her fair share of exposure to media, journalism and writing. Rooting interest in both politics and the economy, Sheppard decided to take a less "mainstream" route when choosing a career. She began her journey at Gist magazine, eventually making her way to one of the most well-known independent publications to date.
Kate Sheppard is now an active staff writer at Mother Jones, Washington bureau.
It was a pleasure to meet and discuss journalism with Kate Sheppard. She has an outgoing and excited personality. She loves to meet new people and hear their stories.
Considering I am a sophomore here at Ithaca, it is always reassuring to meet people like Kate. She is proof that anything is possible and as long as you make the most of the time you have, good things will come.
