Are newspapers dead?
The first decade of the 21st century birthed digital journalism. I love to study the creativity (and the conundrums) new media inspires.
Magazines, Michelle & Meta
Three things I love: long-form storytelling, The First Lady, and research about journalism. Check out my blog for musings on each.
The Millennials are awake!
Gen Y, or the Millennial Generation, gets a bad rap. People call us "slackers" or the "entitled" ones. As both a member and a teacher of this generation, I would have to disagree. Millennials are awake. Especially in my class!

For Students
Check your grades, catch up on lectures or just connect with your classmates. This site is designed to help you!
For Profs
I study Millennials and media. If you do too, then we should talk. I have plenty of white papers, lesson plans and research ideas to share.
For Clients
Do you need video or audio podcasts for your Web site? Maybe you want to learn new media skills yourself, in a bootcamp-style workshop. I can offer both. And–psst!–it’s for a good cause.
For Fun
I am an all-platform journalist who enjoys long-form storytelling. Check out some of my work in the “Media” section of the site. I cover politics, pop culture, new media technology and race.
