Ryan DeCosta is a versatile member of WQAQ, a new intern at Radio 104.1 WMRQ, and an avid Nascar fan.
Ryan DeCosta has followed NASCAR for many years. As the sport changes, his passion for the sport will not. DeCosta is a Broadcast Journalism major at Quinnipiac University pursuing a career in NASCAR broadcasting.
“I’ve been asked many times before, why do you want a career in broadcasting, particularly in a sport like NASCAR,” DeCosta said. “Well, I feel like if you are passionate about your career and your goals, when you finally reach them it will feel like you’ve never worked a day in your life.”
He plans to continue to learn whatever it takes to succeed in the industry.
Currently, DeCosta is working as an intern at Radio 104.1 FM, and works in the Production, News, Promotion, Programming, and Music departments for the student-run 98.1 WQAQ.
