#washingtonpostexpress

Last week my latest piece for the Washington Post Express hit the stands- this time showing readers some of the more private quarters of restaurants and bars across the city.

Having just started a master's in journalism, I've been doing an incredible amount of writing the past month. Being able to do a piece that was photo-centric was a nice reprieve from working on more writing-intensive pieces. 

Before I left for Japan I was faced with a whirlwind of freelance projects that kept me working right up until a few hours before I stepped on the plane. I count myself as lucky for having such a schedule.

The product one of these said projects was my latest piece for the Washington Post Express. 

Delving into the history and modern day life of daiquiris was not only a tasty, tasty assignment to complete- it was a fun derivation from my usual food pieces. 

Much to the woes of my inner travel-bug, I am back home in D.C. I couldn't be more excited to get a jump on the stories and ideas that have been brewing in my brain these last few weeks.

This week my latest piece for the Washington Post Express came out, with a gorgeous layout courtesy of the paper's amazing designers.  

Reading back through the piece I can't help but laugh at just how many stinging nettles I ate that week. 

This past week I had my latest piece for the Washington Post Express on stands. I consider myself incredibly privileged to be able to write about the local art and beer community all in one piece- while learning more about the history of DC at the same time! 

A digital version of the piece can be found here, or crammed between the uncleaned metro seats of our Nation's Capital. 

I look forward to my next published piece in the Express, which will be out sooner than you know it. In the meantime I anxiously await a few secret projects that should be hitting stands shortly; I can't wait to share them with you.
