Ieva Korsakaitė is a first year journalism student at Vilnius University.
The reason Ieva wants to become a journalist is to give a voice to the people that feel like they have no voice at all. She has a critical mindset and also she is naturally inquisitive. She is always questioning the world in which she lives. Writing is her absolute favorite thing to do, so she could use it for good purposes.
Ieva has some experience in writing articles. For two summer seasons she has been volunteering at a music camp. Ieva’s responsibilities were to write descriptions about life in the music camp, take photos, create events and write various articles. Ieva is also very passionate about traveling and discovering new things. While she travels all around the world, she sees a lot of serious problems that other people haven’t even heard of it. She could change that by spreading that knowledge.
In 2017, before starting journalism studies at Vilnius University, she was writing her school news, breaking stories and comments. Her articles were published in the school news board and on the internet. She is a player on the national softball team in Lithuania. While she was participating in the European Championship with her teammates, Ieva was not only playing on the national team, but she was also writing articles about the team’s achievements. Currently, she is studying journalism and believes that good journalism can make our world better. Ieva Korsakaitė should graduate from Vilnius University and become a qualified journalist in 2022.
