Wisconsin Sports Heroics
My First, Real Shot as a Young Journalist/Editor
Shortly after I decided I was not going to pursue music education in college, I found an opportunity to write for a sports blog in Wisconsin Sports Heroics. It was a small start-up with around 500 followers on Twitter/X and a sizeable crowd on Facebook.
From March 2020 to September 2021, I specialized as a Milwaukee Brewers content writer, along with being a site editor from January to September 2021. Two pieces of mine were picked up by Bleacher Report, a large sports reporting website and app with its own staff and social media following, but they do find small creators and help distribute their content, as well.
Scroll down and click through some of my best pieces for this blog!
