Nickie You

Nickie You is a final year student at the University of Queensland, studying a Bachelor of Journalism / Public Relations. Her written pieces are aimed to encapsulate raw emotions and give voice to underrepresented issues and the personal stories of others. She has formed a love for photojournalism during her time at university. Nickie believes that photographs are just as meaningful as text. A photo has the ability to express emotive details which cannot always be explained accurately through words. Currently, she is interning at a Government Ministerial Office where she utilises her skills from her journalism and public relations studies.
