Anthony Davis
Born and raised in Syracuse, I'm a rising senior at Institute of Technology at Syracuse Central (ITC) and a high school intern here at WAER. My love for sports always seemed like it would be a side hobby, but finding a path in the media industry to turn that love into an actual career is a dream come true.
My goal is to grow my name so I can have the resources to give back to the generations that will come after me. I want to inspire people to not be afraid to use their voice and that their voice matters. I believe there will be a huge wave of strong-minded journalists to come, including myself. As I grow throughout my career, I want to make a foundation for people that come after me to be able to look up to.
At ITC, I am the basketball announcer for all of our varsity games and co-anchor of the Tech News Cast, including for the Christmas and Halloween specials.
I am a graduate of 2022-23 Syracuse Journalism Lab.
