Summary
With a deep passion for writing and reading, my academic and professional aspirations have led me down a path that involves both. As an experienced reader with university courses adding to my ability to analyze, literature is and will be a large part of my life. Working in an internship where building processes to highlight student written work has given me experience in the editing and logistical side of amateur publishing. Being in a position to write and analyze literature is a professional goal.
