Sarah Simpson

After graduating from SFU, with a BA and Certificate of Liberal Arts, I went on to get my journalism certificate at Langara College.
After graduation I joined Black Press Media as an intern at papers in Comox and Campbell River, in the summer of 2004. I joined the Citizen that winter.

The technology has changed in my 20 years as a reporter, but my love of telling this community’s stories has never wavered.
