My journalism expertise and knowledge gained from my bachelor’s degree have given me the skill set to thrive in modern-day mass communication. My most recent journalism experience was at the Glasgow Daily Times in Glasgow, Ky. Between August 2013 and April 2014, I wrote news and feature stories, took photos, edited photos in Photoshop, copyedited pages, laid out pages in QuarkXPress, posted on social media, and shot and edited video in iMovie. From January to May 2013, I was a features intern at The Daily Sentinel in Grand Junction, Colo. I also took photos, and shot and edited video. For two semesters, I was a reporter for Colorado Mesa University’s student newspaper. In May 2013, I graduated cum laude from CMU. I received my degree in Mass Communication: Media Strategies and Applications. The curriculum taught me how to write and report for the media, take photos, blog, write for public relations and how to use new media technology.
