In the spring semester of my final year at Emerson, I worked as an intern at AfterBuzz TV & Better Together with Maria Menounos. For the AfterBuzz TV side of the internship, I covered entertainment news for the company website, founded by Maria Menounos and Keven Undergaro. You can find my web articles for this platform below.
