My name is Sean Risk, I am 20 years old and I am studying journalism in Aberdeen. I am now a freelance sports journalist and have covered for the Press and Journal, I have chosen to focus on football as I have always enjoyed watching and speaking about the game so I am travelling to football matches in the north of Scotland and speaking to people involved at clubs to show off my work and also to get to know people in the game and build my network, but also to gain valuable experience and improve my skills. I started by helping out at Banks O’Dee by posting live updates on match days which is what gave me a path into this side of the game.
