EXPERIENCE
Digital Writer | University Girl Magazine, Syracuse, NY | Sept 2025–Present
I write across sections covering news, pop culture, and relationships — pitching story ideas drawn from campus trends, local news, and what's actually on students' minds. I publish weekly and work closely with editorial feedback to keep my writing sharp and relevant.
Editor in Chief | The Glen Bard Newspaper, Glen Ellyn, IL | Aug 2023–May 2025
I led a staff of 30+ writers and photographers, mentoring a dozen newcomers on everything from interview etiquette to article formatting. During my tenure, I also designed our bi-annual print edition in InDesign, keeping our publishing schedule running across both print and online editions. I directly edited more than a third of all published content and collaborated with writers to develop human interest stories and profiles that went beyond the surface.
Features Editor | The Glen Bard Newspaper, Glen Ellyn, IL | Jan 2023–May 2023
I assigned and edited feature stories for the website, managing deadlines and keeping submissions on track. I worked closely with writers to develop human interest stories with strong narrative structure, reviewing drafts and giving feedback aimed at deeper, more compelling storytelling.
Staff Writer | The Glen Bard Newspaper, Glen Ellyn, IL | Aug 2022–Dec 2022
I wrote news articles, profiles, and event coverage for both print and digital editions, conducting interviews with students, faculty, and community members along the way.
Investigative Journalism Workshop | University of Missouri, Columbia, MO | June 2023
I completed a week-long intensive in investigative reporting techniques, attending lectures from national reporters and touring professional newsrooms across print, radio, television, and magazine.
