Kalin's Media Mogul

As a child I always heard the name Robin Roberts.  Robin Roberts is my role model because she has accomplished all the things I want to accomplish.  She was a Sports Anchor for ESPN in the 90s and now she is an anchor on Good Morning America.  

But she started off as just a normal person like everyone else.  She was born and raised in Biloxi, Mississippi and one unique factor about her is that her father was a Tuskegee Airmen.  She majored in Telecommunications and worked at local TV stations and later worked at a radio station in Atlanta, Georgia.  

To me, she has a strong fighting heart.  She fought breast cancer for a period of time while she was working for Good Morning America.  She went through KEMO therapy which in turn made her lose her hair.  She wore wigs until a special day when she was at an event, she took the wig off and walked on the scene being herself.  

My hope and dream is to be a reporter for ESPN.  I heard Robin Roberts speak at a national event that I attended.  She ever since then, has inspired me to be on top of my game.  I hope to be just like her one day.
