Hey.
I'm Robert Westermann, an aspiring journalist at the University of Southern California. I've been working for student publications on campus for over two years as a photojournalist and sports reporter. I was the LA Clippers beat reporter for Talk of Troy, a multimedia sports group, and now work as one of two assistant editors. For the Daily Trojan, I've covered sports from football to golf and have covered four football games as a photojournalist.
I've also hosted and produced two podcasts, Fourth & Goal and Talk & Toss. The former ran seven episodes and covered the NFL, while the latter ran six episodes and covered high school sports and more general life topics.
In the broadcasting world, I was a summer intern at WTVR CBS 6 in Richmond, Virginia, where I had my first major experience as a news reporter. There, I learned the ins and outs of the media industry and now understand what it takes to be a journalist in the digital age.
I'm available for freelance work. Feel free to reach me at rwestermann2004@gmail.com.
