Why These Three?

I favorably selected these three individuals along with their occupational and educational experiences to conduct my study on.

While Kristy is not in the specified profession that I want to go into, political journalism or media, she is a graduate of law school yet does not currently practice law. This compliments my plan to be a Doctor of Law but not be a practicing attorney.
Alicia's career represents the journey that I would like to take in order to one day host my own talk show. Being that she is a multimedia specialist, her experiences prior to her current position which includes editing and reporting local and national news is a skill that I would like to master through prior work.
Jaunice's position with E! is the most inspiring work and the most related to what I want to achieve career wise. While she is not a media host or TV personality, she is very acquainted with the media broadcasting agency and is engulfed in the art of trends which is another facet of interest that I think will be an asset to my pathway.
