I served as the editor and designer of the Kane County Chronicle's features magazine, "Flair," in addition to the section editor for the real estate and automotive sections of this daily newspaper serving the far western suburbs of Chicago. This position required extensive copyediting skills, graphic design, management of freelance writers and some.

As the managing editor of the Missouri Emergency Medical Services Association's newsletter, I worked with medical professionals throughout the state to gather and edit content for their publication. This position presented the challenge of taking content from non-writers in the medical community and turning it into useful, pertinent information to benefit.

I researched and wrote content for this statewide feature magazine, assisted in proofreading content and learned about the production process of creating a monthly magazine. This internship provided me the opportunity to strengthen my reporting and writing skills while gaining valuable knowledge of the publishing industry.
