The Fox School of Business is the business school of Temple University, also home to its sister school, the School of Tourism and Hospitality Management (STHM). With about 6,000 students, 270 full- and part-time staff, and more than 20 research institutes and centers, Fox’s faculty are leaders, researchers, and innovators in their respective fields, and students and faculty publish cutting-edge findings in top journals.

As a features writer, I was responsible for researching, writing, and editing short- and long-form content to elevate the research, events, programs, and work of Fox and STHM faculty, students, and alumni for both online and print publications:

Greensgrow Farms was an educational urban farm and demonstration garden that provided Philadelphians connection to food and nature in an urban setting. A nonprofit dedicated to promoting social wellness through community green space, Greensgrow reconnected city dwellers with rural food producers and promoted the greening of Philadelphia’s homes and gardens. The nonprofit's small, dedicated staff ran multiple garden centers, educational programming, and food access programs.

As a marketing and promotions assistant, I was responsible for aiding in the development and execution of print and digital marketing efforts through photography, video creation, and blog, social media and website updates, and more.

This video project, which I completed as part of my internship experience, represents an overview of how the urban farm got its start and a picture of where it was during the summer of 2013.

Philadelphia City Paper was an alternative weekly newspaper. The independently owned paper was free and published every Thursday in print and daily online.

As an Arts & Entertainment intern, I was responsible for:

• Pitching and writing for the A&E and Agenda sections.

• Compiling 40-60 local event listings per week.

• Fact-checking articles.
