Hometown: North Potomac, Md.
Greg Cohen returns to his hometown with North Potomac Patch after graduating from The Pennsylvania State University in May 2011. He majored in print journalism with a sports emphasis after being accepted to the John Curley Center for Sports Journalism and minored in law. During his time at Penn State, he spent a year working at The Daily Collegian, the school’s student-run daily newspaper, as a member of the sports and campus staffs. He later moved on to work for StateCollege.com as a sports intern and spent the summer of 2010 and winter of 2010-11 interning for Comcast SportsNet in Bethesda, Md.
A 2007 graduate of Wootton High School in Rockville, Cohen got his start in journalism working for the school’s newspaper and yearbook staffs. He has been writing ever since.
Greg is ecstatic to begin his career in his hometown to help provide an essential service to his community. He looks forward to getting re-acquainted with the area as a full-time resident after spending the majority of his last four in Pennsylvania.
Politics
I would consider myself a Democrat, but I do not hold strictly liberal views. Most important to me is seeking the truth and determining what I think is best based on the political positions presented to me, regardless of party affiliation.
Religion
I am Jewish, belonging to a reform synagogue. I am not very active in participating with religious customs but do look forward to becoming a bit more involved now that I have returned home.
Local Hot Button Issues
Most Important:
It’s difficult to call one issue the most important, but there is one issue that rises above the rest: the reliability of Pepco's service.
First, as a lifelong member of the North Potomac community, I know as well as anyone how frustrating and unreliable the service from Pepco can be. I look forward to getting a closer look at what causes so many issues with their service and how they may be trying to improve.
Where I Stand:
As previously mentioned, I’m excited to cover the Pepco issue and help answer many of the questions I’ve had for a long time and figure many members of the North Potomac community share those same questions.
