Here's my biography as an example

My name is Erin Foote Marlowe. My hometown in Anchorage, Alaska, but I live in Oregon. I love rainy weather and hope to someday run a farm with my husband and children.

I started reading newspapers as a middle-schooler in the break room at my mother's office. At first I just read the comics, but then I started noticing crime stories and, after awhile, I even cared about local government issues.

I decided to pursue a career in journalism myself when I was 21. I wanted a job that would hold my interest and provide me with options, such as freelancing, once I had a family and when working would become more difficult.

I think the future of journalism is all about telling the world why things are happening. We will be bombarded with information from hundreds of thousands of sources on the Internet, on cell phones and maybe even someday on scrollers above street lights.

We'll need journalists to tell us how to understand this information regardless of the platform by which it is delivered.
