#MediaMonday – Nick Enquist
Today’s #MediaMonday comes to us from Nick Enquist, a new reporter at the Jewish News of Greater Phoenix. So, Nick, tell us a little bit about yourself.

READ MORE#MediaMonday – Corina Vanek
Up until a few months ago, whenever I heard the name “Corina,” I could not help but think of Whoopi Goldberg and her “two r” role in Corrina, Corrina, one of my old roommate’s favorite movies. But that all changed when I met Corina Vanek, a Sun Devil alum who just moved to the Valley […]
