Joseph wants to be a doctor, politician or research scientist when he grows up.

In his spare time, he builds with Legos, practices gymnastics and karate, hangs out with his friends, plays games with his parents and goes bike riding, hiking, and orienteering.

As a Kid Reporter, he hopes to learn more about our political system and how it works.

“I am looking forward to having the chance to find out the views of others, putting them in writing, and learning about news reporting,” he says.

Joseph is in the sixth grade in Randolph, New York. He has an older sister.
