My Role as Magazine Editor-in-Chief:

Quarantine edition

  • Oversee section editors and staff writers. 

  • Sets monthly deadlines and plans ahead for the entire academic year. This school year, we began publishing virtually every month. I also set 'late days' for our section editors which are when we meet on Zoom after the school day to work on the magazine.

  • Leads the brainstorming and assigning of stories for each print issue. During virtual learning, we ask every staff writer to fill out a brainstorm sheet through a google form and then share them out on Zoom during brainstorm sessions. 

  • Designs the cover page and any news pages for each issue. This school year, I worked to update the design of our magazine, from folios to our table of contents and back page. 

  • Edits news stories and works with individual staff writers to improve their stories.

  • Helps section editors edit stories and design pages.

  • Assign multimedia elements/illustrations for the news section.

  • Upload stories and photographs from the news section to www.thepearlpost.com

  • Instagram
