Business Development Analyst

As an emerging professional journalist with a knack for research and strategic communications, I am positive that I have much to offer an editorial team. I thrive in fast-paced environments, often juggling multiple assignments at once while never missing a deadline, and remain cool in high-pressure situations. I possess distinguished organization skills, have strong writing and interpersonal skills, and exude passion to learn, grow and succeed in order to make an impact in journalism. I have all the gumption and determination needed to be a top notch editor, mixed with a little Southern Charm.
