Have you ever used a typewriter?

Yes, as a Legal Assistant, I used one a few times.

How is social media changing news?

It brings news to us much more quickly, which can be helpful -- but, social media is also filled with a great deal of misinformation.

How do you prefer to be pitched on stories?

I prefer concise, well-organized pitches with a clear angle and relevance to my interests. Include key details like the topic, why it matters, and any deadlines. Feel free to highlight unique perspectives or underrepresented voices—those are the stories that resonate most with me.
