The newspaper business is all hands on deck for getting out on the streets and finding stories in our community. This week, we want to introduce our intern Aidan Kenney, who has been on our Courts & Crime beat helping us get stories to you.

How long have you been interning at the Independent? What got you interested in journalism? 

I’m currently in my seventh week at the Independent and it sure has gone by fast. While I study political science at UC Santa Barbara, I’ve always been drawn to journalism; maybe it’s because of my mom, who got her 15 minutes of fame as a news anchor in Omaha, Nebraska.
