I joined The Row, CNN's editorial oversight team, as an intern in Spring 2022 and transitioned to a full-time researcher position that summer. My responsibilities include managing Row editors' workflows and partnering with them to fact-check and edit TV scripts, digital articles, long-form stories, opinion pieces, audio scripts, and more. It involves heavy cross-department collaboration (especially with the legal and standards team) to review content for editorial accuracy, fairness, and balance.
As part of my job at the Atlanta Regional Commission, I handle social media, newsletters, blogs, etc. I primarily work with aging and workforce departments at my job. I am also a poet.
I enjoy being able to attend and assist with wonderful events, seeing the hard work pay off, and then writing about it. As a poet, the coolest part is connecting with poets all around the world.
I'm a PA student at Mercer University.
The coolest part about being a student again is learning about medicines and finally applying new skills to clinical practice.
When I was a medical assistant and scribe, the most fun part of the job was interacting with patients and discussing differential diagnoses with doctors and nurses.
