Kristie Smith, Staff Contributor

Following the steps of many over-excited but well-intentioned journalists before her, Kristie moved to Halifax to study journalism at King's. Naturally, her curious nature, love of writing, and the smell of pizza brought her to the Gazette, where her talents have been put to good use. With interests that have brought her to every section of the paper, from a controversial rugby article to no-crap opinion pieces and six-hour DSU council coverage, she can be found anywhere the story is. Kristie has worked for other papers, from the Telegraph Journal in Saint John, N.B. to The Watch a campus over, and is in the middle of her second year of King's Journalism (Honours) program. Feel free to follow her on Twitter, @Kristie5mith.
