Mixing my love for music with my passion for storytelling and production, I produced this short feature on Orbit's Record Shop in Barboursville, W. Va. I also later reworked this story to an audio news package for publication through WMUL.
I had the terrific experience of competing on the championship episode of FM88 Sports' Buzzer Beater, a national sports topic debate program similar to ESPN’s “Around the Horn." I challenged myself by competing without notes, only having my laptop to quickly look up statistics. Putting myself under pressure forced me to be more convicted in my arguments compared to past appearances, and it led me to capturing the championship.
