Back at It

source: Library of Congress

Yesterday marked the start of my third semester of grad school. In January, nearly ten years after I finished my undergrad degree, I dove headfirst into a professional writing program. I’m learning lots of cool stuff – developing grants, web design (I made a website, guys!), technical writing, and managing digital media. It’s been an interesting adventure to step back into that student role, doubly so with an online program.
