I keep getting requests from "social media experts" on Linked-In ... I mean really, enough already!

If you're interested in expanding your portfolio in general graphics let me know ... we have a really lame icon for our "Journal Gets Action" stories (It's literally: Journal Gets Action!). My boss would love a super hero…

We don't have a "video dude" but if we did I would totally pass this along!

Good question! I think we're starting at the un-Godly hour of 10 a.m. but will probably be there until 12ish. Unless Jess tells us differently, I think that's the game plan.

Bumper! The office isn't in the student center anymore, it's on Mine Street, but you should totally wander over and offer your expertise!

About Me

Since December 2010, I have worked as a municipal repoerter at The Record, covering five Bergen County municipalities and a regional school district. You can follow my tweets @BergenBeat2 and check our new Bergen Beat blog for updates.

 

Before comning to The Record, I spent a little over a year at the Jersey Journal covering everything Jersey City, including municipal government and happenings as well as Hudson County politics — the county Board of Freeholders calls Jersey City home.

Prior to that, I was a staff writer at the Burlington County Times for just over three years. While there I covered everything from the military, to municipal government, county government, the local state legislators and congressional representatives. I travelled to Washington D.C. with photographer Matt Stanley for Obama's inauguration.

I got my start with newspapers at the Rutgers Daily Targum and as an intern in The Record's Trenton Bureau. After graduating, I worked for a year at The South Brunswick Post and Cranbury Press: Monroe/Jamesburg edition, both owned by Packet Publications. I went on to be editor of The New Egypty Press (which Journal Register recently closed down) working for Media Hookup's creator Lou Hochman.

What to see what I'm up to? Follow me on Twitter.

There's a bug in Ning that's preventing me from creating a Network icon. They're supposedly close to a fix. Hopefully then, the square M logo will show up on outside links like from FB.

I've been a little more Twittariffic lately. Just a little, though.
