This summer, I joined The Washington Post as an Audience Strategy Intern on the social team 📲

I got to:
⚪️ Curate news content across IG, LinkedIn, Snapchat, Reddit, Facebook, X, Threads and Bluesky
⚪️ Dig into analytics + data-driven decisions
⚪️ Engage off-platform users with news content that upholds journalistic values and integrity 

Some highlights:
🔹 Collaborating on IG carousels with @zach_balcoff & the design team
🔹 Learning from Keely Diven, Kyley Schultz Sitton & Brandon Carter on what makes content actually engaging and how that boosts our hard-news to users who might otherwise not see it
🔹 Working with amazing mentors who gave me honest feedback and helped me think about the future of journalism

Favorite posts from the summer are up in my IG reposts — including Trump’s Truth Social AI bot, a portrait in Colorado and a Gen Z intern video with @jillianbanner 👀

I’m so grateful to the entire Post newsroom for being so welcoming, and to Camille Kilgore, Carla Broyles & Bryan Flaherty for making the internship possible.

Excited to take these skills into what’s next❤️📰 The Post was an extremely inviting and friendly newsroom for me this summer, and I had the best time learning and creating social news products at an institution that remains a pillar of American journalism and a driving force for keeping the public informed on the truth in Washington.

Heater of a day in more ways than one yesterday.  Had the opportunity to take part in media day for the upcoming @bmwchamps at Caves Valley, which included a round on the exclusive Tom Fazio-designed course in Baltimore County. The event was headlined by @mccarthy_denny , who sat down on stage with Jimmy Roberts to talk about his prospects for making a run at this year’s FedExCup. @patrickcantlay joined remotely, the Western Golf Association announced an impressive new Evans Scholar recipient, and tournament chairman Buddy Marucci welcomed media members from across the region.

As expected, the course was immaculate—not a blade of grass out of place, no surprise lies, and greens that have been completely redone since the 2021 BMW, now running fast and true.

Our foursome was lucky to have two top-tier forecaddies who elevated the experience from a 97-degree slog into a first-class round. Shoutout to Will and Robbie, who’ve been looping at Caves for 18 and 32 years respectively.

Can’t wait to get back out there in mid-August and watch the Tour’s top 50 take it on.

Michigan State pulled up to see their recruit make history! 

Cam Ward recorded his 2,612th point, surpassing Mike Roberts to become the all-time leading scorer in Maryland.
