Summer 2008 work
Available below is a selection of clips published summer 2008 in the Wilmington (Ohio) News Journal. For other samples of my work, see the page about me or the site proper.
July 19, 2008 — A column reporting community response to DHL’s announcement they would pull thousands of jobs from the community, and outlining actions legislators should take.

June 21, 2008 — At first the Wilmington housing market wasn’t affected by DHL’s announcement. Foreclosures were a bigger problem that had been growing for years. (I did a housing market story before it was cool to do a housing market story.)

May 24, 2008 — As part of a Memorial Day tribute section to veterans, I met with a local group of Iraq and Afghanistan veterans who gave up on the VA and started counseling each other.
