During my time at Texas A&M University, I worked as a communications intern for the Department of English Undergraduate Office. I taught myself how to work with Drupal and HTML in order to update and modify our department website, created monthly newsletters reaching out to former and current students in our program, and initiated an email outreach campaign that reached over 300 English Department alumni.

Creation of the newsletter involved:

• researching potential stories
• conducting interviews with students, faculty, and campus organization representatives
• photographing events
• writing and editing content
• designing the spread
• coordinating with a local print shop to print and distribute the newsletters
.

I also initiated the creation of a style guide for The English Aggie newsletter, and created extensive documentation on operations and best practices for future interns.
