CityBeat

Avery has been a reliable workhorse. While most interns (even those with industry-ready skills) require some level of handholding, Avery was highly self-sufficient. Her most significant contribution was her ability to fill the gaps in our day-to-day coverage with simple yet important quick-turn stories. While this contribution might sound small, industry folks know that these are the helpers who keep the lights on.
