594 Words3 Pages

While being an intern at Christian Appalachian Project (CAP), I have had hands on experience writing press releases, being able to pitch a story, create images on Canva to be used on the Instagram page, and being a part of meetings that discuss detailed images of the Spring/Summer issue of the Mt.

Everyone that I have met at (CAP) has been so nice and accepting and willing to help me with anything. Mrs. Bryson has taught me so many lessons when it comes to public relations, especially when writing press release and learning various ways of writing a press release, even gaining the skill of turning an interview into a press release, being able to use BurrellesLuce, Canva, SmugMug, and creating a Media List, even when posting images on Instagram and the word usage. She made sure that I understood the basics of (CAP) and what they stand

The Documentary Overburden

905 Words | 4 Pages

After all the readings, videos, and discussion about Appalachia, I'm honestly shocked about how oblivious I was to the hardships occurring to the people of these areas.

This article reminded me of a trip I took this summer that focused on the indigenous people in the nation. In late June and early July, I went on a trip that changed my life.
