Prodigal Press is a Provo, UT media collective with an emphasis on personal narratives, investigative journalism, and local art and events. We are dedicated to publishing unheard voices and perspectives. Prodigal Press was founded by undergraduate students at Brigham Young University with the intention of providing an alternative platform for underrepresented opinions.
I joined Prodigal Press as their videographer and quickly took on the role of social media manager and wrote all social copy. My second year at the collective, I stepped into the role as Operational head in addition to my previous duties, and now manage a 30 person team of journalists, designers, and project managers. Under my direction, the operations team plans and executes social/marketing strategy for digital media, plan community events and outreach, and oversee the logistical aspects of physical print publication from weekly newsprints to the yearly magazine.

EVENT PROMOTIONAL REEL
I also authored a piece under the direction of the writing team during my time at Prodigal. It delves into my own experiences with my upbringing in the Mormon church and the nuances of scrupulosity--religious OCD, so just a bit of a content warning there. It was selected to be a part of the 'Year in Review' magazine for 2023, so I can officially say I am a print-published author!
