Writing

Writing has been something I’ve always enjoyed. I fell into writing “seriously” when I decided to attend a news meeting for the daily newspaper at my university. When I attended the meeting I was a Dietetics major; when I finished my first writing assignment I changed majors. If I could better any one of my skills it would be writing.

As a writer I’ve also blogged for many online publications. Previously I had been a regular blogger for brass|BLOG, All By Students (sadly the blog no longer exists), and OSU’s Community Service Center (don’t mind the bio). Of course I’ve started a few of my own blogs including this fabulous one you’re on now, Traveling Chaos, and A New Dawn (first blog, don’t judge). The work below does not include any of my work that has been published on blogs.

Here is a small portfolio of my published writing.
