Sports Journalism Grad Kristen Shilton Plays in the Big Leagues
Kristen Shilton knew she wanted to be a sports journalist when she graduated from Wilfrid Laurier University with a degree in English. She explored her options and determined that the best plan to achieve her goal was to study Sports Journalism at Loyalist College.
By enrolling in Loyalist's post-graduate program, she learned how to use her writing skills effectively in a journalistic style rather than an academic one. After completing the program in 2011, she continued her studies at Syracuse University in New York where she obtained her Masters in Magazine, Newspaper and Online Journalism.
