Ever had a career opportunity present itself that you didn’t expect? In this episode of On The Move, I sit down with Sandra Torres, a bilingual journalist who currently works as a morning and midday reporter for NBC 5 and Telemundo Chicago. Born and raised in Cali, Colombia, Sandra moved to Chicago’s Northwest suburbs with her family as a teenager. She began her career in broadcast journalism in 2006 after graduating from Illinois State University with a bachelor’s degree in Mass Communication and a minor in Spanish. Sandra is also a proud board member of the National Association of Hispanic Journalists – Chicago Chapter. Sandra shares insights from behind the scenes of the journalism industry and how embracing your story, culture, and experiences can shape the path you’re meant to walk. Episode Notes: • Using your own experiences to tell powerful stories • Being proud of your heritage and showing up for your community • The importance of storytelling through emotional connection Sandra’s journey is a reminder that sometimes the unexpected opportunities are the ones that lead you straight to your purpose.
