I’m Sophie Dimitrijevic – current first year BA student studying journalism. This blog and portfolio will contain the start of my future career as a writer, something that I’ve been passionate about for as long as I could remember. I’ve had dreams of becoming a fashion journalist since I (beware: cliché ahead) fatefully watched The Devil Wear Prada and 13 going on 30, and have fond memories of collecting Vogue in hopes of one day working for them or companies alike.
Recently, I had one of the first opportunities to work my first big(ish) role within the industry with the Big Issue, and since completing my 6 month internship, I feel as if this role and opportunity made me become more open to political and lifestyle journalism, as I’ve seen and interacted first hand with news stories that made me feel ways that fashion journalism may not have been able to.
So, to simply speak, I’m now open to all aspects and subgroups of journalism, and am trying not to limit myself in one writing bracket and style. Laid forth in this blog I hope to tackle exactly this, and show my variety as a writer as I take my first step into the world that is writing.
