Journey to Journalism and Television Appearances

Berg has been fond of writing from her childhood days. In the early days, she used to think of becoming a fiction writer.

Berg has made appearances in numerous television series appearances including Cavuto ob Business (2015), Hannity (2015), Fox and Friends (2014-2015) and Cashin’ In (2016).

Memorable Moment and Bow to The New York times

In an interview with thewildmagazine.com, she mentioned that she still remembers that day when she spent time with a few members of Obama’s traveling press corps during the presidential election.

“In late October 2008, when I was a freshman in college, then-Senator Obama swung through my college town for a last bit of campaigning before the presidential election. By an incredible stroke of luck, I was able to meet and speak with a few members of his traveling press corps. We talked shop, and then they asked my friends and I to drive them to a bar—even after they had spent a grueling day on the campaign trail. I thought, These must be the coolest people in the world; in fact, I still do.”

At the beginning of her writing career, Virginia Young mentored Berg and taught her the fundamentals of responsible, intelligent reporting on government. Virginia Young was the chief state government reporter. Similarly, she learned so many components of writing from Ryan Lizza, Political writer for New Yorker during her internship period. As a whole, Berg is grateful to an entire team of Washington bureau of The New York Times.
