Jocelyn Shepel

multimedia journalist

Hello,

I’m a journalist with writing, photography, and video skills. I enjoy using these mediums to tell unfamiliar stories.

I graduated from BCIT, where I studied broadcast and online journalism. Since then, I’ve enjoyed working for various newsrooms in B.C. and Ontario. Currently, I’m reporting for CBC North in Yellowknife.

I have a passion for writing in-depth pieces that are informative and raise awareness. Some of my interests include environmental and humanitarian topics.

My start in journalism derived from a love of storytelling and sharing ideas. Putting information into the world to be consumed by the public is a responsibility. It’s also full of opportunity.

My portfolio displays the creative avenues I use to make engaging pieces. Although I’m fond of using different media, my favourite form is writing; you can check out my recent work here.
