ABOUT
My name is Emily Paulson, and I recently graduated from the Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communication at Arizona State University with my master's in sports journalism. Before that, I attended Western Washington University, where I earned my bachelor’s degree in journalism. My goals in earning my master’s were to gain real work experience and enhance my writing and broadcasting skills. I am a fast learner and go-getter with experience in social media content, sports reporting and on-field hosting.
I am a disciplined individual who is a sports journalist and sideline reporter. My college athlete background has given me time management, leadership and communication skills. I am a solution maker, taking advantage of opportunities offered to me and creating them for myself to make my career what I want it to be.
I understand the sports world and how journalists can impact the public’s view of sports media. I want to bring a new spark to our industry and challenge people to look at the sports world from a humanistic perspective. All of my work is driven by when I was a little girl who was curious and grew up wanting to deliver heartfelt, timely stories to everyone.
