Hi, I'm Donita. My fascination with the art of communication began early, and I discovered my love for journalism during my school days. Despite initially opting for commerce due to limited options, I pursued a BA in English Literature and Communication Studies, strengthening my commitment to the field. Now, armed with a keen sense for news, I'm passionately pursuing a career in journalism and communications.
Other Interests: I enjoy creating and editing videos, particularly vlogging. Additionally, I find fulfillment in volunteering whenever possible, especially in caring for dogs.
