NEWSPAPER SERIES

Addiction Series
I wrote this series for The Journal in 2009 in an effort to explore the topic of addiction from different perspectives. I conducted interviews with addicts and their family members, exploring their experiences with addictions such as sex, gambling, food, drugs and alcohol. Scroll down to read through all ten accounts. A resource guide is provided at the end for addicts or family members of addicts.

World Champions of the Panhandle Series
When I realized the Eastern Panhandle was home to a surprising number of world champions, I thought it would be interesting to profile each of them. For this series I wrote for The Spirit of Jefferson in 2016, I conducted interviews with Travis Bagent, world champion arm wrestler; Vicky Bullett, Olympic champion and WNBA player; James Jett, Olympic champion and NFL player; Randy Robinson, world champion weight lifter; and Fulton Walker, NFL player with two Super Bowl appearances.
