Journalism

In college, I also worked on various journalism and multimedia projects. I was a video editor for the Studio C Sessions at the KTSW radio station, as well as a reporter and video editor for Studio A, a student-run newscast.

​

Many of my classes also included video projects. The video here is a documentary I produced about a Central Texas indoor percussion group called Rhythmic Force as they geared up for a national competition in Ohio.

During the fall of 2017 and into spring 2018, I had the opportunity to take an internship with Ralph Smyth Entertainment. The production company is based in Austin, TX, and I spent a few days a week at their office helping mostly with marketing and social media management.

​

I also helped in a few other areas in the company. I transcribed interviews and coded subtitles for videos on social media. I also screened scripts that were being optioned at the company.
