Portfolio
During my time as a content writer at Aston Carter, I wrote and provided content support for blog articles and sales collateral. I also acted as a podcast producer and editor for the company podcast, Solver Studio. Below, I have provided samples of my work with the organization.
Additionally, I am pursuing a master’s degree in journalism from New York University and have begun adding work I’m particularly proud of into this blog space.
