I am a staff writer for the Principia Pilot, Principia College's newspaper where I have written articles on a variety of subjects such as International Student Inclusion on Campus, our new college president, local businesses, satires, and more. I have conducted research for my articles, interviewed community members and local businesses owners and contacts, and written 700-1000 word published articles.

Assisted the Admissions department of my school with capturing moments from their New Student Orientation to share on social media.

Through Principia Internet Radio, I have hosted two talk shows: One co-hosted with my friend Lindsay Clarke called "Late Night with Linds and Lil" where we discussed a variety of topics ranging from social justice issues to music to relationships. The second was my own talk show where I invited singer-songwriters on campus to come in and talk about their song writing process and play a handful of their original songs. Through this work I learned how to work with the equipment in the radio station, advertise my show, and interview people.

As an admissions ambassador for Principia College, I work with perspective students visiting for a long weekend Thursday-Sunday. Our team builds relationships with visitors, helps them navigate their visit, have conversations about their interests and how our college could meet those, and overall have fun working together as a team to provide a fun, educational, and amazing weekend for them!
