Catherine Roberts served as a Loretto Volunteer at Interfaith Voices in Washington, D.C. during the 2013-2014 program year. She now lives in New York City where she is getting her Master's degree at the CUNY Graduate School of Journalism.

It would be hard to imagine a more different environment from my volunteer year than my current life.

Journalism graduate school is non-stop. It’s 12 hours of work at a time; it’s watching and reading news on multiple screens; it’s always having my phone with me in case a classmate or a source rings. 
There is little silence, or stillness. When you must be producing at every moment, there is no space for reflection. 

Now, I love what I do. I love the work of reporting. I thrive on being a little too busy and having a few too many tasks on my plate.
