Nonfiction Reader for Colonnades Literary and Art Journal
Publishing Intern for Our Stories Literary Journal

I have been lucky enough to have had internships and other experiences with literary magazines and journals such as Our Stories, When Women Waken, and Colonnades Literary and Art Journal. The skills I have gained in these roles - giving feedback on creative pieces orally or written, engaging clients via social media, using InDesign to format publications - have made me confident in my abilities to work more independently in the field.
