I don’t think I really announced it on here but I’ve gone back to grad school. For one of my classes I wrote this article. A special thank you to @KeyrisNews, @jajacobs_ & @TylerJThrasher for talking to me.

Taking a walk to reduce stress? Where you take that walk matters, says @jer_science of @ScienceMusofVA & @VCUWilderSchool. "We basically showed that walking in a shady, quiet neighborhood was like going to a therapist, trainer and outdoor thermal oasis all at the same time."
Walking in urban green spaces is better for us than walking in gray spaces. A professor of urban and regional planning and studies describes how we can get more out of our city walks — and how cities can be designed to reduce stress and improve health.

This is a story I’m truly glad I got to work on. I enjoyed learning about Terry’s story & the impact he had on everyone around him.
I originally got into journalism because I love telling other people’s stories & I’m so happy I can do that at @VCUnews
Terry Austin retired last month after serving as VCU’s director of bands for 36 years. A retirement concert was held in his honor, filled with music, former colleagues and students and memories. news.vcu.edu/article/2022/06…

I’m dismayed by the layoffs we’re seeing at newsrooms around Virginia and across the country. Our local press does incredible work informing folks, seeking truth, and reporting accurately, and it’s frightening to watch newsrooms shrink over the years.
