Community Connections former Times intern profile: Sally Palmer


Mike Christopherson
What year did you work in the Crookston Times newsroom?
It was so long ago, but I believe I was the first intern in the summer of 2000, right after I graduated high school.
What was your favorite part of your experience at the Times?
I honestly loved interviewing people and learning from the staff in the newsroom.  I have a lot of fond memories of everyone who worked at the Times.
What was the biggest thing you learned about yourself and/or the biggest life lesson that you took with you when you left the Times?
Working at the Times was incredibly transformative for me. It solidified my confidence in writing, meeting deadlines and working collaboratively with a team. I also learned that my words had a lot of power (some words I definitely regret writing in hindsight) and what I had to say resonated with members of the community. Complete strangers who knew me via my family would stop me and compliment my writing, which was incredibly unexpected. So, on that note, I learned about the kindness of strangers and how the smallest gesture can stay with a person for years.
