Danny Sanchez - Journalist and Multimedia Producer
On Paper, Online and Onward...
My passion for journalism began in high school when I was dragged into a newspaper classroom by a stubborn English teacher. I went on to work at five Florida newspapers as a reporter, print editor and web editor, covering anything from a cannibal tracker to crime trends. My trail has led me through the St. Petersburg Times, the South Florida Sun-Sentinel, The Independent Florida Alligator, The Miami Herald and now the Orlando Sentinel. My online journalism blog is at Journalistopia.com.
At the University of Florida, I had the opportunity to do some radio reporting at a National Public Radio station and fed my passion for Hispanic culture by becoming president of the Hispanic Student Association, one of the largest groups of its kind in the United States.
