About

Born and raised in Baltimore Maryland, Tierra has been exposed to a myriad of cultures and creative expressions. She developed an interest in creative writing and theatre from a young age, but it was Multimedia Journalism that stole her heart and took her to Morgan State University.

​

Tierra is currently in her junior year at Morgan State where she currently works as a staff writer for The Spokesman. Although  Tierra continues the journey of completing her undergraduate degree,  she hopes that her work as a student journalist will carry her towards her future goal of one day working for the Today Show or Dateline NBC.

​

During the Spring semester of 2022, Tierra was enrolled as a student in COMM 201 which is an introductory course to journalism and communications. The students were assigned a semester project which was a mixture of all of the materials that were taught for the year. 

​

The project included elements such as Podcasting, Video, and an article that showcased any topic that interested the students. 

​

Tierra's semester project detailed the rise and fall of African Americans in the Catholic Church, which ultimately was published on the school's radio broadcast website WEAA. 

​

Ms. Stone has since worked as a staff writer for her school’s student newspaper, The Spokesman; and has recently written articles regarding student housing, the Student Government Association, and a gun reform panel that was hosted by Phi Beta Sigma Inc. the Gamma and Zeta chapters at the University.
