Hi! My name is Rushana. I am 21 years old, and I am a journalist. I work at the International Press Club that is famous for first live broadcasts on the national TV of Uzbekistan.

Due to Press Club sessions uzbek people gor acquainted with many officials. Officials began to work in order not to be disgraced during a live broadcast. So, two years ago I even couldn’t imagine that once I will work there.

Do you want to know how I got there? Well, I began to work as a press-secretaty at Journalism and Mass Communications University where I study on September last year. The rector of my university is Sherzodkhon Todjitdinovich Kudratkhodjayev. He knew how I wrote posts and soon noticed that my writing style is good and he was satisfied. After, he called me to work at the same time at International press center because at that time the team of International press club was working there. They were responsible for helding Parliamentary elections. I was working in their team too. That time was great. I adored my love despite the fact that we worked almost 12 hours per day. We had more than 3 events and did really enjoyed our work.

As the Chairman of International Press Club is at the same time our rector, it meaned that I had a chance to continue working there after elections. I worked hard, the main thing — I enjoyed with my work.

Soon, after elections, Sherzodkhon Tojiddinovich said that he will take me to work in Press Club. I was very happy because I had alredy known about the team of IPC, about their activity.

Since that time I have been working at the International Press Club. Nowadays I prepare reports, interviews on different themes.
