Over the course of my four years in college, I wrote more than 100 articles for The College of New Jersey’s student newspaper The Signal, where I served as Editor-in-Chief and won awards from the New Jersey Press Association’s Collegiate Newspaper Contest for Deadline Reporting, News Writing, and Investigative Reporting. I also had the opportunity to interview LMFAO, Jerry of Ben & Jerry’s, Marlee Matlin, and Andrew Jenks.
