Patricia Rocha
After Patricia was told by her high school counselor that there was no way she could major in Ginger Rogers movies, journalism was easily her next choice. She became editor in chief of her high school paper after only one semester. When she started attending Bakersfield College, she was quick to get back into the journalism field by joining The Rip as a reporter, then copy editor and now Editor in Chief. Though she’s interested in ballet, photography, and her own sewing and fashion blog, journalism is her true passion.
