About Aimee

My name is Aimee Michaelis, and I’m a 19-year-old from the small town of Bragg Creek, Alberta. I grew up on an animal rescue farm with my Mum, and graduated from Springbank Community High school.

The RTBN (Radio, Television, Broadcast News) program is my first experience with post-secondary education, and I have loved it so far. My Mum found a pamphlet about this program, and came into my room one day and put it on my desk and said “this would be PERFECT for you”, and I do believe she was right. I have loved this program since day one.

My favorite parts are anchoring, reporting, and editing. From our first semester until now, I have loved editing projects together and editing audio. I used to compete in public speaking, and so I knew that I would love anchoring, and am hopeful that’s where my future could take me one day.

My ultimate dream coming out of this program would be to get into entertainment reporting – I would love to be able to interview celebrities or work at a station like E! News. I think it would be fun, and I would get to learn something new every day. But I really do enjoy most aspects of the industry, not just the entertainment portion.

I am so grateful for all that this program has taught me and the people and experiences it has brought into my life. Being on Television or on the Radio is a passion of mine, that I am hopeful I’ll be able to achieve thanks to the amazing instructors in the RTBN program.
