Senior / Broadcast Journalism

Tristan is an aspiring broadcast journalist, aiming for a career in a sports industry. Centre County Report is one of his first television assignments, but he has worked extensively with radio in the past and enjoys both subsets equally.  Outside of CCR, Tristan currently works for Results Radio in State College as a producer and cohost, and also is the current president for his fraternity, Alpha Chi Rho.  Besides Broadcast Journalism, Tristan has also completed minors in both Spanish and Business and plans to utilize these areas of study to the fullest when he enters the journalism field.

Christian Heilman

Senior / Broadcast Journalism and Management Information Systems

As a senior at Penn State, I’ve hosted and anchored more than ten hours of live television, including newscasts, roundtable discussions and webcasts for the nation’s largest homecoming parade and largest student-run philanthropy in the world. The reporter in me lives for writing, shooting and editing my own stories with a definite soft spot for human interest stories and features.

On top of my journalism major, I am also a dual major in management information systems with a graduation date of May 2014. I then plan on entering the journalism field as an on-air reporter.
