My Biography

By: Haley Jenkins

Taylor Tribbey, an aspiring photojournalist and videographer, obtained his associate’s degree in photography at San Antonio College and is now pursuing a bachelor’s degree in journalism at Texas State University.

Working as a news photographer for The Ranger News at San Antonio College, Tribbey learned valuable video and photojournalism skills such as interviewing techniques, working with b-roll, and creating his own creative and interesting cutlines for photos. At Texas State University, Tribbey has been involved in several scholarly and journalistic endeavors including video interviews and photography projects.

A few school projects Tribbey has worked on include: creating an HTML resume website and polishing it with CSS and Photoshop; applying basic video shooting and editing concepts like cropping, splitting clips, adding audio and transitions to tell a multimedia story; and using Wordpress to create a multimedia reporting project with videos, links, widgets and interactivity.

In addition to his studies, he has participated in diverse school organizations at Texas State University, including: the Middle Grey Photography Association, where he attends local events and participates in forums for constructive criticism and creativity in photography; the Pagan Student Fellowship of Texas State, which performs workshops with informational PowerPoints and local promotions such as tarot readings and bake sales on campus; and the Young Americans for Liberty, the largest, most active and, as Tribbey describes it, "the fastest growing pro-liberty organization on America’s college campuses."

In addition, Tribbey helped out fellow skateboarding enthusiasts in his hometown of New Braunfels, Texas, with a fundraising campaign for the Jaws Skatepark Foundation. He collaborated with the city council and made speeches on issues involving the park budget. In what became a four-year process, from his freshman to senior years attending New Braunfels High School, Tribbey was successful in aiding the creation of a project that eventually lead to one of the largest grant amounts from the Tony Hawk Foundation, totalling $25,000.
