I briefly worked as a freelance contributor for The Asheville Citizen-Times' Answer Man column, which addresses reader-submitted questions. My first article focused on North Carolina's coyote population and included an interview with an extension wildlife biologist for the N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission. The second initially focused on a missing street sign in the suburb of Woodfin and ultimately uncovered a minor jurisdictional oversight in the county that had resulted in responsibility for the sign not being delegated.
