Video Editor, Digital Managing Editor | 2020-2021 | Evanston, IL
I served as Video Editor for my school newspaper in the spring of 2020, leading a 12-reporter team to produce 21 videos in 10 weeks — three times as many as the quarter prior. I served as Digital Managing Editor in the fall of 2021, leading and editing all video, audio, photo, social, web and interactive efforts. Most recently I served as our Social Media Editor, redesigning the paper’s Instagram page and crafting over 30 posts. My staff profile — and all 14 stories I’ve produced — can be viewed here.
