About
I am a senior journalism major with minors in business administration and French at the University of Tennessee at Martin, a small public liberal arts college in the U.S. South. I work as the managing editor of The Pacer, our weekly campus newspaper. Additionally, I work as a supplemental instructor for lower-division French courses. I am also amazing.
My writing interests include:
Government news and investigative writing
Business trends
Urban construction and our man-made environment
News commentary
Health care
Technology
Environmental writing
In addition to media writing, my creative pursuits also include graphic and news design, editing, creative nonfiction, Web design and vocal music performance. I occasionally do advertising creative, to the dismay of my journalist friends.
I enjoy stimulating conversation with just about anyone, and I particularly enjoy hearing novel ideas.
My future plans hopefully include law school, and then, who knows.
D'ailleurs, j'aimerais parler en français avec n'importe qui de n'importe quoi. Pour moi, c'est un passe-temps formidable, particulièrement avec du bon vin français ;)
