Sam Weir B.A
I’ve reported from Afghanistan and Zimbabwe among other nations and have a track record of producing quality work in high pressure and hostile environments. I graduated from Auckland University in 2008 with a double major in political science and media. I’ve written features and reports for a number of publications and I’m now looking to make the progression into a staff role in news media (print or television). I’m a hard working and determined journalist with an eye for a story.
