Jacksonville Magazine 

As a magazine intern at Jacksonville Magazine, I was able to further develop my communication and writing skills. I focused primarily on local features reporting and contributed to the development of the datebook calendar section and trivia quiz question section. The local features reporting I did had a primary focus on parks in the greater Jacksonville area. I commuted to these parks to gain insight on the area for reader. I also took still photos of the parks. I worked on a wedding section of the magazine, which required me to correspond with brides/grooms on their wedding story. Through features reporting, I worked on pieces about local business, restaurants, and family activities in the area. The datebook calendar was a process that required me to research events in the area over the course of a couple of months. The trivia quiz question section required me to research hidden and interesting history about the Jacksonville area. I also attended the Tim Coughlin 2022 Jay Fund Wine Gala event to take a variety of photos for the magazine. This specific internship helped me further develop skills with still photo shooting. I also worked to retrieve information, high-resolution photos, quotes, and anecdotal information for my team. I helped copyedit content in the magazine such as restaurant stories, top lawyers in the area and the pet section, which helped me with furthering my grammatical abilities.
