PORTFOLIO

During the fall 2022 semester, I was a writer and co-editor for Platform Magazine. Platform Magazine is a public relations based publication that aims to reach public relations students and professionals.

​

While being a writer and co-editor, I was also part of our marketing team. The marketing team was responsible for a marketing report with all updated information and data at the end of the semester. We were also responsible for securing fundraising events to raise money for magazine publication. We secured percentage days at Baked Bear and Just Love Coffee in Tuscaloosa, as well as a graduation cord fundraiser. The marketing team also ran our Platform Magazine LinkedIn page.

​

Through writing for Platform Magazine, I was able to write about topics that interested me while putting a public relations spin on them. I wrote a total of three articles and three blogs throughout the course of the semester. I interviewed industry professionals and was able to delve into topics that hadn't been touched before through Platform. 

 

This class was a family. We had a total of 12 writers and we all became very close. It was the first class in college where I truly felt a sense of community while perfecting my writing skills.
