Backpack Journalism

I think I would like to become a Backpack Journalist. While I do think that sometimes it is beneficial to specialize in one thing, I do feel it is best to be the best you think you can be in all aspects of your career and life. 

My dad works on the advertising side of the newspaper business. He is constantly learning new tools and types of technology to advance his craft. Many of his co-workers seek him out when they have a problem or even to help them learn these new things. 

I would love to be this person for my company one day. I feel like Backpack Journalism would allow me to learn these types of skills. Overtime I hope these skills allow me to be the best at my job and journalism in general.
