Jordan Huesers bio

Jordan Huesers is a senior journalism major at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. She is from Overland Park, Kansas. Huesers was introduced to journalism when she worked for the high school newspaper, which helped her decide about a future career.

Huesers worked at the Daily Nebraskan throughout her college career and has found special interest in the copy editing department. This summer she interned in Corpus Christi, Texas, for Journal Media Group. She was a copy editor for four Texas and three West Coast newspapers.

Although she loved spending time on the beach, Huesers would describe herself as a mountain girl.

“I went to the beach every day. I can’t complain,” she said. “But, I would much rather live in an area such as Denver.”

Huesers enjoys grammatical rules but that’s not the reason she is passionate about copy editing.

“I like copy editing because it lets me challenge bias,” said Huesers. “It has a lot of fact checking.”

Her top three applications she uses frequently are Instagram, Vine and Snapchat.
