Other Work History
As a student at Roger Williams University (graduated with a BA in Communications and Minor in Creative Writing in 2008), I served as co-creator, board member, promoter, and editor of the student literary magazine. Also during college, I served as Intern to the Director of Communications at Wilbraham & Monson Academy, writing press releases, writing and editing web content, and creating event programs.

Since graduating and before freelancing, I held a few different full-time positions at different organizations, the most relevant being my position as Program Planner at PRIM&R, where I was the contact person for volunteer members of three planning committees, managed the "Basecamp" website, edited multiple documents and materials from several departments, and helped plan a conference for 3000 people.

Also, during this past school year, I worked weekends as a Library Assistant at Wilbraham & Monson Academy, helping students to do research, organize ideas, and edit papers.
