Our Team Mission

News Port sticks with New Mexico communities through engaging stories.”


Elizabeth Secor, Editor

I’m a junior at the University of New Mexico. I have worked in journalism since my junior year of high school. Outside of being the editor for News Port, I am a freelance reporter for the Daily Lobo, a member of the NYT Corps program, and a member of Chi Omega, a Greek life organization on campus.


Santiago Anaya, Intern Reporter

I am a freshman here at UNM, majoring in journalism and communications. Something interesting about me is that I am an avid fly fisherman. I’ve been fishing my whole life and absolutely love it.  My goal for the future is to make it through college successfully and pursue a career in journalism. I love to learn and grow, I hope to become successful in this field and leave my mark.


Connor Currier, Intern Reporter

I’m an upcoming Journalism student at the University of New Mexico. My long-term goal is to be a political investigative journalist. I own a personal media brand called “Service and Engagement USA” on YouTube and Instagram, where I dive into politics, culture, and trending news.


Izabella Kubiak, Intern Reporter

I am a junior at the University of New Mexico. I am majoring in Multi-Media Journalism and Communication with a minor in Management. My favorite hobbies are hiking in this beautiful state and watching my Green Bay Packers play on TV (and especially in person). I am most excited to start News Port to gain experience in Journalism so I can one day become a side-line reporter!
