Santa Barbara is a ripe area for writers, and our Indy intern Kira Logan has been writing up stories from the world of arts and culture. Logan, who also writes for UC Santa Barbara’s Daily Nexus, has been a journalist at heart since she was little.
When did you start at the Independent? What originally sparked your interest in writing here?
I began my internship in September! I’ve had the pleasure of writing for the Independent all three quarters of my second year at UCSB. I had always admired the Independent my first year at college, and would always pick up a copy when I stumbled across it. The vibe and writing style felt so Santa Barbara to me, so intriguing and interesting to read. I always thought interning would be a dream, and I was right!
