With a double B.A. in journalism and playwriting from Columbia College Chicago, I am on the hunt for full-time writing, editing, and communications positions. In addition to my year and a half leading the intern team as the Press Aide & Internship Coordinator in the Chicago Mayor's Press Office (see my LinkedIn for more details), I have held management positions in journalism throughout my entire college career, and my theatrical knowledge allows me a uniquely creative perspective in journalism and communications. At the same time, my journalistic expertise gives me an edge in research, organization, nonfiction writing, and critical analysis. 

​

On my LinkedIn, you can track my professional career, but below, you can see more details about my experiences in collegiate journalism:

​

After spending my freshman year of college as the IV Leader's Culture Editor, I moved on to Editor-in-Chief, where I redesigned the magazine to a tab style and led the newspaper to win numerous awards at the Illinois Valley Community College Journalism Association awards, including General Excellence. 

​

After I moved on to The Columbia Chronicle, I jumped from Copy Editor to Opinions Editor to Copy Chief to Senior Editor due to the regularly rotating staff. I took over the advice column Awkward, in which I wrote most often on sex and relationships, occasionally dabbling in friendship, family, and pandemic issues. 

​

During the summer of 2020, I interned with Gateway Journalism Review, a journalism trade publication, where I covered issues relating to the pandemic and copy edited their Summer 2020 issue, which revolved around health and science journalism.

​

And during the spring of 2021, I acted as Echo Magazine's Production Manager, creating a schedule and back out schedule for that year's issue, as well as writing and editing articles and guiding other reporters.
