Carlos Delgado (1991-96) is a former TV news reporter who now works for Rady Childrens Hospital as an award-winning Bilingual Senior Media Relations and Public Information Officer.
A proud Aztec, Delgado shares stories from his work as a reporter in numerous markets throughout California and how that experience helps in his current role. He details the process of thinking of a story idea, how he pitches the idea and to which reporters, and facilitating the story (including consulting with doctors and the parents of sick children).
Delgado gives us behind-the-scenes examples of his work, whether it's spotlighting K9 therapy dogs to ease the worry of children receiving their vaccine, or a star high school basketball star diagnosed with sweaty palms who was able to help others by sharing his story.
"Where Ya At?" is a podcast focused on the School of Journalism and Media Studies at San Diego State University. Each week, during the Fall and Spring semesters, host Josh Suchon (Class of 1996) interviews alumni to learn about their experiences as college students, entering the workforce, key steps in their professional development, advice they'd give to current students, and details about how they covered a specific story.
