BACKGROUND

An Impressive Journalism Career

Picture
   Karyn Houston had a flourishing career as an award-winning journalist before entering the world of academia.

   Karyn started at small newspapers -- The Cambrian in Cambria, California, was her first newspaper job. She started as a reporter and quickly learned all the ins and outs of running a small newspaper in a tight community. She also refined art, photography and project management skills, making certain that the newspaper was produced and printed on time and on budget.

   Gradually Karyn worked her way up in the journalism world, to larger and larger newspapers, ultimately landing as Bay Area and Front Page News Editor at the San Francisco Chronicle. Along the way she worked as a reporter and editor at the Modesto Bee and the Honolulu Advertiser. She also operated Internship Programs throughout her career, working closely with college students embarking on a journalism career, and has managed large staffs and diverse groups of creative individuals.
 
   Karyn was offered three mid-career fellowships and ultimately was awarded a prestigious fellowship at the University of Hawai'i focusing on the study of Southeast Asia. She completed a Master's Degree at the University in that discipline and also earned a number of impressive journalism awards along the way.
