Salima Virani
Salima looks forward to graduationg this year and pursuing a career in broadcast journalism. Salima was drawn to the topic of phobias as she suffers from a few fears herself and wanted to explore them more. Her fears include a fear of death and one of her articles explores thanatophobia so not only can she be more informed, but readers can become more aware. Her goal in the magazine was to inform people that phobias are treatable and people who suffer from then can get help.
