Erika’s Story

Going into my second semester of my junior year at Syracuse University, I have been blessed with many opportunities both on and off campus. I was chosen to anchor our on-campus political news program and have had the opportunity to cover President’s Biden’s recent trip to Syracuse. I’ve served as President and currently as Secretary for my chapter of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc., and this past summer, I was honored to work for the TODAY show as an intern. Working at the DC Bureau of the Today show allowed me to cover some of the biggest issues impacting our nation. I was able to produce stories including the Jan 6. hearings, the aftermath of Uvalde and the impacts of inflation on business owners. Since graduating ECYP I have been able to build and strengthen relationships with many groups and people, and I am proud of how much the program has influenced who I am today.
