The Planet

Photographer and photo editor

2023-2024

Ever since I started working with the student publications at Western Washington University, I had the goal of becoming a photo editor.

I spent time working a teach of Western’s three main publications and I enjoyed my time with The Front and with Klipsun, but I felt most at home with The Planet.

I started as a photographer for the publication and became the photo editor over fall of 2023.

Though I had a little experience working for student publications before, I grew tremendously during my time at The Front.
