As a Program Counselor at The School of The New York Times, I support the design, implementation, and delivery of immersive educational experiences for high school and college students with a focus on media, writing, and journalism. I serve as a mentor and advisor, guiding students through creative and academic challenges, facilitating workshops, and providing personalized feedback on writing, research, and multimedia projects. My role involves close collaboration with educators, newsroom professionals, and program staff to ensure a dynamic and inclusive learning environment. I also assist with event planning, outreach, and the continuous evaluation of program impact, helping students build confidence, sharpen their storytelling skills, and engage critically with the world around them.
