ABOUT ME

My name is Kris Pangilinan. I have just completed the Journalism Program at Seneca College.

I've studied at Seneca College for three years. The first year I studied Liberal Arts until switching over to Journalism.

Why did I choose Journalism? Journalism is full of change. Every single day a new story breaks, everything changes. That is what I love. News affects everyone, in one way or another. Whether it changes the way you walk to work, or just a topic of conversation. Small or big, news is news. And everyone deserves to know what is going on in their area.

Many types of news interest me, but mostly politics is what I wish to cover in the future. City Hall or House of Commons. It interests me because a decision by these elected officials, can change the course of the city or country you live in.
