I'm Collin Norcross, a junior at Northeastern University with many passions and even more opinions. Raised by a dad from Western Mass, I've always been a die-hard Boston sports fan. That's undoubtedly where my affinity for writing began. I was writing threads and calculating player statistics on Twitter back before they expanded the character limit to 280. Although my passion for writing is rooted in music and sports, the AP US History course I took in my junior year of high school forever changed my worldview. What I once saw as an opportunity to gain internet virality, I now view as an obligation as a journalist. An obligation to accurately and ethically report the facts about topics that the mainstream media either neglects or pumps full of disinformation. Although short-form media is the new standard, I still place critical value on the importance of blogging. In an effort to garner as much engagement as possible without sacrificing the use of long-form content, I created this website along with accompanying social media accounts. In doing this, I created a platform that allows me to expand upon my opinions, free from the distractions of other users. I can write both serious and satirical pieces and I get to do it my way.
