Interview

What was your first job as a journalist?

I first worked as an intern at Philadelphia RowHome Magazine and was lucky enough to be hired full time after graduation.

What tools and software do you use to do your job?

Audacity, InDesign, SoundSlides, Pixlr.com, and Pintrest are some of my best resources.

Why did you become a journalist?

I am passionate about and hungry for information. There is nothing more satisfying to me then sharing what I know with people.

Did you work for your high school newspaper? If so, what did you do there?

Yes I did, I was the Editor In Chief so I had the opportunity to flex my management skills.

What story are you most proud of writing or working on?

I love all of my food stories, but the work I did with my undergraduate program PhiladelphiaNeighborhoods.com was most gratifying.
