As part of my masters capstone project, I traveled down to Charleston, South Carolina, to work as a festival reporter for the Pulitzer Prize winning newspaper, The Post and Courier. I researched, pitched, and wrote stories about national and international artists coming to the Spoleto Festival USA as well as the Piccolo Spoleto Festival—a smaller, local arts festival. I wrote advancers, features and reviews and tried to incorporate multimedia elements whenever possible. Below is a list of my published works from this experience.
