    • Intern
      • May 2019 - Jul 2019

      I had the opportunity to intern at WKRN-TV in Nashville. During this internship, I learned different skills from reporters and producers. I would go out with reporters and photogs and shadow them as they went to cover stories. I would practice standups, and make my own packages from different stories. I also helped log interviews for producers, practiced writing stories for newscasts, and practiced writing web stories. I also practiced anchoring in the studio and worked the assignment desk.
