Inside the mind of an aspiring writer: Daniel Garcia dives into his journey to being a student at ECC, and why aspiring writers should join the Observer.
Your contribution will allow us to send students to the National College Media Conference in San Francisco in March 2026. This will grant them an opportunity to learn about about journalism and receive recognition for their work.
Ribbens is in his second year at ECC. He is finishing up his Associates in Arts degree this semester and plans on pursuing Sports Journalism. This is his second year with the Observer and first as a writer. He joined the Observer with hopes of improving his knowledge and skill in journalism with real experience. His main focus is sports but is also open to covering any kind of topic. He hopes the Observer will prepare him for what’s to come in pursuing a journalism degree and beyond that. He lives life with the motto, “be patient and honest with yourself and others.”
