Articles Published During My Undergraduate Degree at Santa Clara University
At Santa Clara University, I majored in Communication with an emphasis in Journalism. I was first inspired by Spoon University and worked as a freelance food writer for BayArea.com. My interests changed once I started covering climate change and zero waste stories focused on the Center for Sustainability at SCU. One of my articles about a zero-waste campus is published both in The Santa Clara and Ignatian Solidarity Network. During my Senior year, I worked as an ESL teacher helping Mexican women immigrants and refugees learn English so they could to take the citizenship exam. These stories are now published on the website https://borderlands2018.wixsite.com/mysite
Spoon University
At the beginning of my Sophomore year in college, I joined Spoon University. This is an online database made up of thousands of articles about food. Topics range from health to the latest innovations in the food industry. As a writer I have researched and reported on quite a few topics that have been published on the SpoonUniversity.com. After taking on a new position as the Editorial Director for my chapter, I managed a team of about 10-15 writers who pitched ideas to me. My role was editing this work for publication. During my Senior year, I became the president for my chapter, in which I managed the different leaders, making sure the club was efficient and inclusive in its content and educational agenda.

That is the best academic decision I have ever made. I am now an opinions writer and the political cartoonist for the newspaper. I am not afraid to speak how I feel because I beleive everyone's deserves for their opinion to be heard by others.
