Clark Atlanta University’s sophomore, Denika Huggins deliberates her future as a television broadcaster or host of her own show.
Majoring in Mass Media Arts, contemplating on what field she wants to concentrate in, Huggins has many ideas. She has been introduced to print journalism and feels she has an interest for writing. She was encouraged to write and it opened her eyes to the field of writing. Changing her mind about broadcasting, “my personality is so bubbly, it’s not as conservative as a regular news anchor.” Huggins is considering whether she wants to host a radio show, become a news anchor, or host her own entertainment news show.
As one of the host for, “The Block Party,” Clark Atlanta’s own WSTU 98.1fm radio, she experiences radio hosting with co-host, Primo Stax. During the hours of 6-8pm, Monday and Wednesday, Huggins talks about student events to media, while also playing music of all genres.
Huggins has taken the proposition as an intern this summer with ABC News Channel in D.C., Huggins plans to step her foot in the door of her future. Recommended by Sharon Morton, news anchor with Morton Media, Huggins has many references. She plans to become more familiar with the surroundings and adapt to television and radio settings.
Also, Huggins plans to intern at The Oprah Winfrey Show. “I want to become her mentee. If I become her mentee, I would have some connections and have a possible position with her show and I’m trying to contact her now.” Interning with The Oprah Winfrey Show will allow Huggins to gain and experience necessary knowledge about the Mass Media industry. The Oprah Show offers an exploration of the variety business groups offered and internees will gather an understanding of how each operation will provide to the talk show.
Currently, Huggins has been asked to host “Get Your Hustle On,” for the Hip Hop tour in Panama City, Florida. The tour sponsored by MTV, happening March 10-14 will allow independent artists to gain recognition.
Considering graduate school at Howard University, Huggins is unsure what is awaited for her in the future.
