I’m currently sitting in a coffee shop in Washington, D.C. waiting for the journalism convention to start!
The Daily Campus chose me and three other students to attend the four day convention. I feel so lucky and honored to bump elbows with the nation’s best student journalists. I’m beyond excited to hear Bob Woodward’s keynote speech.

Thanks!
As promised, here’s my story about the 17-year-old student who donated nearly $30,000 to the Windham Area Interfaith Ministry. Thank you to the Hartford Courant for publishing my work!
Good news! Through one of my journalism classes, Feature Writing, a story of mine will be published in a local edition of the Hartford Courant. The story is about a young girl who donated much of her time to a local volunteer organization.
I’m thankful for the UConn journalism department for advancing my career even before I graduate. More information will be forthcoming.
Growing up, my sister and I were the bickering types. It was always who could tattle first, who had to take out the trash and who had the best grades. It wasn’t until I left for college, when I had my first taste of the “real world,” that Caroline became my rock and support. While she lived in Boston, it was easy to plan the monthly visit. However, in September she left the East Coast behind and headed to the flat and tan land of Dallas, Texas. My first visit was planned for late November, to spend Thanksgiving and her early December birthday together. We were going to wing the Thanksgiving dinner, roam the local malls and outlets on Black Friday, and spend a calm and restful week together. Or so I thought.
