I’m a senior English major at Coastal Carolina University and the Managing Print Editor for The Chanticleer. I’ve always enjoyed storytelling since I was a little girl and in Fall 2024, I was introduced to the world of journalism when I tried out for The Chanticleer. I hope to pursue a career that involves editing, writing, or publishing and I can’t wait for what this upcoming year has in store.
