The Lakeland Times
From 2014-2016, I was the outdoors reporter for The Lakeland Times of Minocqua, Wisconsin. I managed a weekly outdoor news section that ran in both papers, covering state and federal natural resources management, outdoor news, and silent sports. My writing won awards from the Wisconsin Newspaper Association in the following categories: environmental reporting, feature story, and outdoors column. This is a modest selection of some of those stories.
