Introducing Chris

Hi, everyone — Christopher Nelson here. I’m happy to be a new contributor to bthesite. I just wanted to take this opportunity to let you know a little about me.

I especially look forward to blogging and sharing with you my perspective on Baltimore and other things happening in our region.

I’m a hometown boy, a Baltimore native. I graduated from St. Ignatius Loyola Academy in downtown Baltimore, McDonogh School in Owings Mills, and in May I finished up at Loyola College.

Now I’m putting my degree in communications to work as a news writer, Web writer and desk assistant at a local television station.

I’ve also reported for TV and radio here in Maryland and in Illinois.

While I’ve had a personal blog for many years, this is my first foray into the public square. I plan to write about life after graduation (what’s good about it; what’s not so good), politics (as it relates to people my age), money (money is one of those matters I feel like as a young person I need to know more about), career (what it’s like to be a young professional in Baltimore), urban affairs (maybe it’s the seven years of education by the Jesuits, but I feel the issues confronting this city should never go overlooked).

In the coming days you’ll be able to learn more about me. But do me a favor? Take it easy on me as things get under way.

If you want to reach me, send me a message cenelson08(at)gmail(dot) com.

Thanks,
Chris
