Matthew Mendoza, Author
Matthew Mendoza grew up in West Hartford his entire life. He enjoys photography and playing the violin. He has recently been accepted to the University of Colorado, and is fully committed to going to this college.
Matt can take his creative side and use it to his advantage, by showing readers his personality as well as conveying his ideas about various issues. Matt has decided to take journalism because, “It’s a cool class, it’s not just like creative writing… this is real stuff ”. He likes how journalism gives students a chance to express their own opinions when it is otherwise tough for him. He also wants to learn more about photojournalism in this class. He hopes he can become more aware of what’s happening today in the media. Matt does not have any specific topics he is interested in, but through journalism, he will hopefully find issues that are meaningful to him.
