BACKGROUND
The Daily Illini is an independent student newspaper at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign.
As a writer, my work focused on producing well-researched, engaging, and relevant articles for the Arts and Culture section (also known as “buzz”).
I published a total of 21 articles in my role at The Daily Illini. These projects challenged and captivated me, covering music, film, literature, culture, and events.
