Hello, my name is Rosie Rapisarda

About Me:

Hi! I’m a graduate student at Syracuse University’s Newhouse School, studying Broadcast and Digital Journalism with a focus on becoming a News Producer.

My passion for producing has grown through newscast classes and internship experience at local Syracuse news stations. I’ve learned how powerful a well-crafted show can be and how much I love being part of the process.

I grew up in Brooklyn, surrounded by a mix of diverse voices and perspectives. That upbringing fuels my drive to create inclusive, community-centered journalism that builds stronger connections between viewers and their local news station.

I’m especially drawn to stories that don’t always lead a newscast but still matter deeply to the people they affect. As a producer, I want to amplify these voices, write purposefully and shape newscasts that respond to community needs.

I’m excited to keep growing, keep learning and keep telling stories that make a difference.
