My experiences in communicating have led me to be a reliable and resourceful team player. Through radio hosting, I have learned to gather information about music that listeners find interesting. My time as a student journalist for the CWU Observer taught me how to meet tight deadlines early in my journalistic career. I also wrote for the university’s student-run magazine, PULSE, which provided me with the skills needed to write compelling stories. PULSE taught me that great stories can be written about nearly anything, however my education was what taught me where to find them.
