While I was at Gannet Newspapers (formerly GateHouse Media), I’ve had the opportunity to get my writing published. Some stories were created within the company’s CMS.
However, here are a few that were created using Storify (service ended May 2018). The following are screenshots of the original articles:
“‘I need loyalty; I expect loyalty.’ Former FBI Director James Comey testifies“
“Classes canceled after stabbing incident left 1 student dead and others injured“
“Rain, flooding, and destruction as Hurricane Matthew continues on its path“
“Prince dead at 57: Initial reactions“
“Houston woman stuck in traffic causes a scene in her birthday suit“
Additionally, I created data visualizations using Tableau to add more elements to the stories I syndicated.
More data visualizations can be viewed at my Tableau profile.

“The iPad theater: The convergence of film and interactive media“
“Beyond Dance Dance Revolution“
“What Left 4 Dead can teach us about kids’ games “
“Beyond a thousand words: Accessible complex data“
