Stories I've written or been in
As a news intern at The Gainesville Sun, I have had the opportunity to learn a little about many different activities and events that have occurred in Gainesville. I have written for a few publications previous to this experience, but the dedication and work ethic that had to come with this internship was unlike anything I had previously done.
The stories below are representative of some of the work I did while at The Gainesville Sun and also include work I did previous to the internship. Overall, the links at the top are my most recent work and the links at the bottom are my beginning stories.
Unfortunately, not all of my stories are online and therefore I cannot include them here. I plan to scan the stories and post them soon.
I believe through my experience as a news intern, I have become a little more bold and creative with my writing. When I first began writing as a journalism major, I felt stuck to writing every story with a specific formula in mind. As I have progressed in my major, I have learned that there are times when creativity will improve a story, but of course there are always times when it is not beneficial.
Some of these stories I am especially proud of because I went to my editor or I contacted the freelance editor and asked if I could do the stories. These stories are here, shown by the links "LGBTQ Protesters", "Study: Annual Checkups may not be worth it", and "Get to know UF ambassadors". There are a few others as well.

Pictures from Europe Backpacking Trip Summer 2008
Here we are standing in front of the Bradenburger Tor in Berlin, Germany in July 2008. The winged goddess on top of the structure was once taken by Napoleon and brought to Paris- but evenutally was returned to Berlin. Now the area is called Pariser Platz to remind the Parisians of the event. Berlin was our second to last stop on our backpacking tour of Europe.
Stavros, Lauren, Sophie and I take a gondola ride through Venice, Italy in June 2008. Our gondolier, Antonio, told us information about the city during the 80 euro tour which lasted 30 minutes. The tour began in a small canal away from the main tourist areas and ended next to one of only three crossings over the Grand Canal, the Rialto Bridge.
My friends Sophie, Lauren, Issa and I in front of the Eiffel Tower in June 2008. Paris, France was our second stop on our backpacking trip through seven different countries in Europe. A few nights after this picture was taken, the tower was lit in all blue lights and the 12 golden stars of the European flag were mounted on the base to signify the start of the French Presidency of the European Union.
While backpacking through Europe, I visited Rome, Italy in June 2008 with my friends Lauren Englebrecht, Sophie Subbiah, Issa Issa and Patrick Carroll. Here we are after visiting the Colosseum, one of the city's most famous pieces of history. It is the largest amphitheatre ever built in the Roman Empire and construction started from 70 to 72 AD.
River rafting in Interlaken, Switzerland with an adventure group, including my two friends Lauren Englebrecht and Sophie Subbiah in July 2008. Interlaken is famous among backpackers for its variety of offered outdoor sports, including canyoning, bungee jumping, paragliding and sky diving. While backpacking through Europe from June 23-July 24, Switzerland was our stop between Venice, Italy and Munich, Germany.
