Our #mondaymotivation is first semester student Sydney Fishman. She has brought her audio reporting skills to NYC from California, where she got her start interning at radio stations in Santa Cruz and the Bay Area. While most of her work has focused on immigration, including a story she produced about undocumented works at strawberry farms being exploited by companies, she also enjoys reporting on music, movies and local artists.
