United StatesWhat I'm looking for
As a dedicated sports journalism student at Manhattanville University, I am passionate about storytelling and engaging audiences through various media formats. My experience as a freelance baseball writer and podcaster has allowed me to hone my skills in creating compelling content that resonates with fans and enthusiasts alike. I am a proud member of the Internet Baseball Writers’ Association of America, which has further enriched my understanding of the sports journalism landscape.
In addition to my writing, I have gained valuable experience as an office assistant at the Manhattanville Center for Career Development, where I streamline digital media organization and enhance communication strategies. My role as a student ambassador has equipped me with the skills to effectively promote services and engage with my peers, ensuring they are aware of the resources available to them. I am committed to fostering a supportive and informative environment for students, which I believe is crucial in a university setting.
