• Managing Editor

  • Jan 2019 - May 2019

  As managing editor for Echo Magazine, a student-run magazine at Columbia College Chicago, I was required to not only be a writer but also an editor. I was in charge of keeping the magazine in the right direction based on our theme of Home for the semester. I did line editing, micro-editing and copy editing. I was also part of one-on-one meetings with the writers and was required to stay updated and aware of deadlines for the stories within the magazine. I would also have discussions with our graphic design team in order to understand how everything was going in both the editorial and design area of the magazine. Show less
