Ashlyn Beck
News-Editorial Journalist
ABOUT
My name is Ashlyn Beck, and I am a senior at Baylor University. I am a University Scholar with a secondary major in news and editorial journalism and minors in French and religion. I'm a part of Alpha Lambda Delta Honor Society, a member of the Baylor University Honors College, and a volunteer at Antioch Waco Community Church. I'm twenty years old and after college, I hope to work for a missions newsletter where I can combine my passions of ministry and journalism.
