I've worked in every aspect of the newspaper business, from freelance reporter through editor. I am experienced in training writers, office management, copy editing, and writing on any number of subjects. I've improved newspapers by making new connections, training local reporters, and recruiting columnists.In all my editorial roles I've managed social media pages, growing the audience through strategic posting of content. I analyze insights and analytics to see where improvements can be made. This year I've begun re-training myself with courses in social media marketing, creative writing, technical writing, and audio production. I support my staff by showing how to improve and develop their skills. I am used to working with limited resources, and know how to use what I have to deliver the best product. In 2016, I won second place in the NENPA awards for Science/Technology and second place in Business and Economics reporting.See more of my work at https://maxsimmonsbowen.journoportfolio.com/
