ASME Editorial Intern at Family Circle

I am a magazine and online journalist interested in writing about fashion, lifestyle and culture topics.

This summer I am working as an editorial intern at Family Circle Magazine through the American Society of Magazine Editors. I have previously completed an editorial internship with Time Out New York magazine.

I am also an editor for the national fashion, lifestyle, beauty and home website, Glitter Guide, created by Taylor Sterling of SterlingStyle.com

I am also the current Editor in Chief of Thread magazine, an online fashion magazine created and completely run by Ohio University students.

I am a senior magazine journalism student in the E.W. Scripps School of Journalism and the Honors Tutorial College at Ohio University.

I am interested in writing and editing opportunities with fashion, lifestyle, home, beauty and culture magazines and websites.
