Chalkbeat
Audience Engagement Intern

Audience Engagement/Development, Social Media, Social Video  
2024
I am an audience engagement intern at Chalkbeat, a nonprofit network of newsrooms covering public education in the United States.

I connect Chalkbeat’s education reporting to new and exisiting readers through social media posts, social videos, and reader callouts. I also assist with SEO, ensuring articles are able to find the most relevant readers through search.

I developed best practices and guidelines for promoting Chalkbeat stories on Reddit. These guidelines will help the newsroom maintain relationships with these digital communities. My Reddit guide can be found here.

I’ve worked to build Chalkbeat’s Instagram Reels presence. I produce and host social videos breaking down Chalkbeat stories in a snappy, explanatory format. I’ve written best practices that will help the newsroom continue production of these videos after my internship.
