At any given time, I'm actively balancing 20+ different projects.

Traverse City, Michigan

My duties included laying out an average of 10 pages per night while working with satellite editors from six different publications nationwide. I also led the design of the Sunday edition of the Traverse City Record-Eagle. Some of my duties included copy editing, creating chars and graphics as well as photo editing. One of my Sunday Front Pages was awarded an APME Newspaper Contest Award for 3rd Place in Best Full Page Design.

I was the first student editor appointed who was working toward a degree in art instead of journalism. During my tenure as editor, I led the staff comprised of 50 reporters, photographers and designers to an Associated Collegiate Press Pacemaker award — the highest award for college journalists. Throughout that same year I redesigned the student-run newspaper from a traditional broadsheet format to the current commuter-style tabloid and created templates, libraries and a design guide.
