As a young girl, Jennifer Martinez says her mother gave her journals and told her to write. “ Write your feelings, write about what happened today or what’s going on” her mom would say. Jennifer’s love for writing & talking came in handy leading her to pursue a career in journalism. After working in Springfield, Massachusetts & Tucson, Arizona, she made the jump to one of the top 15 markets in the country.  Jennifer talks about working in Phoenix, connecting with people in Spanish-speaking neighborhoods, the importance of representation, how meditation helped her career, and what she’s learned about live shots & storytelling along the way.
