Who am I

Hello, my name is Jerico Vera-Fernandez. I am a Junior at George Mason University, interested in Sports Media and Journalism. From playing sports and writing about my interests, I have developed a dedication to sports writing and analyzing different sports. The thrill and passion that sports create are so special that they inspired me to transcribe that unique feeling into writing. I want to showcase my distinctive personal skillset through sports journalism.

From working as a server to writing for my university’s newspaper, I have been able to develop and implement my diversity of communication skills. Interpersonal, attention to detail, organization, and adaptability are some of the skills I focus on in my work and personal life. I am also actively looking to learn and keep improving myself. I feel there’s always something new to learn and challenges to overcome daily.

After completing my B.A. degree in Communications, I hope to see myself finding opportunities in sports journalism/media. I aim to join a company as a sports journalist and be involved in the sports business.
