As a freelance writer, I have written articles for both print and web.
For The New York Institute of Technology, I have written features and alumni spotlights; researching and interviewing alumni and professors, and working with the editor to craft informative and interesting copy.
As a Dean’s Fellow in the the Columbia University School of the Arts, I covered many different kinds of stories, writing spotlight articles, conducting interviews, and covering alumni and current student news.
Other samples of writing can also be found below, including a section of the Cultural Plan for Winnipeg, and articles from the print magazine of The Winnipeg Humane Society.
