The Peak

The Peak

I was an Arts Contributor from 2011–2014 while I attended SFU as an undergraduate student. I also attended the Canadian University Press national student journalism conference in Toronto in 2013 as a Peak representative.

I pitched stories, conducted interviews, and delivered content to deadline. I primarily wrote about literary events and book news relating to the local writing community, and I had a regular series featuring SFU authors.
