JJ Cooper - JMC 215 Blog

Journalism Student, Sports nerd, and a Die-Hard Seattle Seahawks fan.

My name is JJ Cooper, I am majoring in Journalism and minoring in Sport Management. I am most interested in sports such as sports data or sports analytics. Learning web coding can definitely help me in the future with my interests in sports and the data that comes with it.

My Story

My name is JJ Cooper and I am from Overland Park, Kansas. I’ve always had a huge passion/interest in sports, and I’ve always enjoyed reading/keeping up with all of the sports articles, so I thought why not combine my 2 interests into one? I would like to eventually cover the NFL, the NBA, technology, or video games, because those are my biggest passions.
