On the first day of Multimedia Journalism Professor Chiecchi tasked the class with interviewing the person sitting next to us and then writing a short biography based on what we collected. For a mere five minutes, I had the pleasure of getting to know Aldo Garcia. We both shared a few similarities being as we are in the same program, but what I enjoyed most what learning about Aldo’s individualism that makes him as Professor Chiecchi would say “newsworthy.” Here is what I was able to gather:
Native Minnesotan, Aldo Garcia, traded in his wool coat for a life jacket when he made the decision to enroll at Texas State University, where river tubing in between Algebra and British Literature is a rite of passage. When he’s not frequenting Sewell Park, you can expect him to be at the gym or reading Anime. Following his graduation in 2023, a landmark tech-hub such as Apple or Google is the end goal for Garcia as he embarks on his journey into the ever-changing, dynamic world of Digital Media Innovation. His grandmother has been the catalyst that drives his ambition, as she raised him with high hopes and an assiduous work ethic.
