I spent May-July 2011 at The Courier News — a daily newspaper in Somerville, NJ. After completing an editorial internship, I continued writing freelance or the paper until summer 2012. I mostly covered upcoming town events and interviewed local authors.

• Lessons learned in Nicaragua (July 5, 2011)

• Bringing smiles to India’s AIDS orphans (July 6, 2011)

• No Trick: When it comes to magic he’s a champion (July 18, 2011)

• Program a winner for area Girl Scout (May 23, 2011)
