FREELANCE WORK

Following my graduation in May 2021 and the completion of my internship at CNN, I began working as a freelance journalist. Soon after, I began a full-time, long-term position at Canopy Atlanta. I picked up some projects here and there but then began doing it more consistently again in November 2024. Here is some of the work I did as a freelancer:
