At Boss Image, I wrote clear and efficient web copy for the affiliated dance company, Jordan Mac Studios. I conducted SEO research and analysis for various clients, presenting my written findings to staff after completion. Additionally, I updated their Youtube account to adhere to SEO best practices, rewriting video descriptions and titles. On several occasions I conferred with the design team, offering my input to the website and branding materials. In-house maintenance and upkeep was also a part of my daily tasks.

My internship at WSU's Department of Anthropology focused on the creation of an annual newsletter for the department, which I orchestrated from conception to completion. Over six months, I conducted face-to-face interviews with MA students and wrote up their student profiles, designed the newsletter using programs in the Adobe Suite, and assisted in choosing and editing the material that would be featured in the newsletter. I met with the head advisor of the department on a bimonthly basis to exhibit my progress, discuss revisions, and go over next steps for the project. The internship served as a great introduction to the editing and publishing processes that a freelance writer might undergo on an assignment for a corporation.
