Journalism
The Times Leader
Serving as an education reporter for The Times Leader, I cover more than a dozen school districts and multiple higher education institutions, reporting on meetings, budgets, projects, student events, and community issues. I produce daily news, special section coverage, features, and profiles within and outside the education beat. Work samples, including a profile, event coverage, and education stories, are below, as well as a link to all my digital content.
WVIA Public Media
As a news intern at WVIA, I wrote local community news articles for the WVIA website and wrote, recorded, and edited corresponding audio stories that aired on WVIA-FM, using Adobe Audition for post-production. Below are stories on an animal shelter rennovation project and Nicholson's Sesquicentennial, as well as a link to all my content published to the WVIA website.
The Beacon
I served as editor-in-chief of Wilkes University's student newspaper, The Beacon, after joining the staff in fall 2021 as an opinion writer and later transitioning to opinion section editor. In addition to managing and editing, I wrote dozens of articles on topics ranging from campus and political news to opinion and feature stories. Below is my coverage of then-Vice President Kamala Harris' visit to Wilkes University, a story on immigration, and a link to all my articles published on The Beacon website.
Other Articles
Below, there are two articles written for COM 309: Crime and Political Reporting: a local election story on the 119th District race and a story on what the upcoming Trump administration will mean for the LGBTQ+ community, as well as a profile story written for COM 260: Basic Newswriting.
