Programs

As a longtime member and SPJ leader, I’ve run and hosted hands-on events geared toward teaching journalists and student journalists applicable skills in fun, interactive settings. These events are often held at coffee shops, breweries, universities, high school campuses and college media conventions — and we can bring them to you.
