07 / Writing · Features · Digital
I create stories that help people understand what's happening across Perry Township Schools and why it matters: student and staff features, campaign content, major initiatives, and ongoing digital storytelling.
The idea
A behind-the-scenes look before launch, with no finalized name or brand yet, introduced through students, educators, business partners, and the University of Indianapolis collaboration.
This is the assignment, not the full article. The piece itself is on the district site.
Where it went
A long-form feature following a former Perry Township student’s journey from entering her first classroom as a refugee to returning to that same school as an educator. Interviews, personal storytelling, and district messaging.

I write the stories, then keep them moving: web, social, newsletters, and the materials leadership needs when something has to be said clearly. The throughline is helping people understand what is happening and why it matters.
