Examples of my work available online include articles, editorials and collective projects

  • My final portfolio for a Web writing class, which details my studies in social media
  • The last issue of Stand Up! I’ll ever edit. I really think it looks fabulous. Other than a few errors, which were fixed in the last round of proof-checking.
  • My current (as of December 2009) project where I attempt to find out what the links we share tell others about us, via Tumblr
  • Arts review blog I created and maintained for a critical review class, along with three partners (all design work was mine)

  • Another Athens Banner Herald Sunday piece, discussing my growth as a debater
  • Throughout high school I wrote intros for Baseball Almanac’s Fabulous Feats section. The introduction and many of the subsections were written by me. I’m surprised to still see them up.
