It all begins with a story.
I tend to think of myself as part of the background. I cover events, capture moments in time, and report the facts. I work behind the camera and behind my computer screen.
I'm passionate about being a journalist, photographer and digital content creator. It all began with my journey through journalism. My love for newspapers revolves around a memory of my father and I going on a drive every Saturday to get a copy of the weekend edition of the local paper, a Hubig's pie and a cold bottle of Kleinpeter. At my age I was only concerned about the cartoon section, the Prince Valiant strip in particular, but this is where my dream of becoming a journalist was first nurtured.
As I got older and my love for writing developed so I chose to attend the Louisiana Scholars' College at Northwestern State University in Natchitoches, Louisiana. I earned a Bachelor of Art with a concentration in news editorial journalism and a minor in photography. My goal was to work for the local newspaper. It took me a few years after graduating to get my foot in the door, but I was so excited for my accomplishment.
A few years into my dream job I realized that with technology becoming a bigger part of our lives, the field of journalism needed to adapt if it was to survive. When an opportunity to work for an online news journal presented itself, I jumped on the digital news bandwagon. It was a scary decision to step into an unknown arena, but I have to say that it was the best decision.
I now work as editor of the Natchitoches Parish Journal, I've started Poole Media with my husband, a media agency that helps people use technology for their own business success, and I work part time at the Louisiana School for Math, Science, and the Arts in the External Affairs Office.
I've embraced technology to help others and I'm proud to do what I do. Through each of my jobs I'm able to help the community. As a journalist I keep readers informed. With Poole Media I get to help business owners tell their story through their social media accounts, thus keeping them connected to their consumers and helping their business to grow. At LSMSA I help get information out to the public about the school and the great things its teachers and students accomplish through press releases and social media.
All these things boil down to my ability to create authentic, meaningful content that people can connect to and engage with. From photography, to videography, to graphic design, and more; it may seem simple but it means a lot to be a part of everything I'm involved in.
I've got a special knack for networking, conveying a story, and making things happen.
Let's work together to make your business better!
