Switchboard

Telephone switchboard operations dwindled as new technology emerged in the late 20th century.

I think of this page as a modern switchboard, connecting visitors from one place to another.

The last thing I thought I’d do after graduating college was write for a trade publication tailored to institutional investors responsible for retirement plans, endowments and foundations — but here I am.

Are you a Baruch College undergraduate student interested in or have a passion for writing about business? You’re more than welcome to contribute to the business section. Even though I no longer edit the business section, I encourage you to send a message to the current business editor through the Ticker Business email.

You’re already on it. I post musings, photography, and creative works here occasionally. You can find my professional portfolio or “pro-folio” here.

A month before I started my first semester in my high school’s journalism program, I watched John Oliver’s segment on the news industry. Always worth a rewatch.

I read Rachel Kaadzi Ghansah’s 2017 longform piece profiling Dylann Roof — without interviewing him — as part of a class on narrative journalism. Shout out to Syreeta McFadden for making this a must-read article for her students. Anyway, it’s a piece that makes me wonder if I could ever report and write something as intricate as this — and I’m linking it here for those who haven’t read it to read.

Just for fun. This link changes once in a while.
