I’m Grant Coursey, the state government/politics reporter for the Bismarck Tribune. I have a firm belief that journalism exists to serve the community by keeping residents informed on the issues they care about. I discovered my deep passion for journalism while working for Colorado State University’s student run newspaper — the Rocky Mountain Collegian — and solidified it while working as a freelance journalist in Ukraine.
