My name is Jake Loessin and I am 19 years old from Houston, Texas. I came to the University of Texas at Austin with aspirations to obtain a journalism degree and chase a career in sports broadcasting. Since I was very young I have always had a passion for sports and have always dreamed of broadcasting for ESPN or writing for a sports publication. So far I have enjoyed this major very much and I believe that this university has the tools to help me further my career in journalism.
