I recently had my first piece for USC Trojan Family Magazine appear in their Summer 2009 issue. It’s another port in the stormy life of a freelance writer, and so far a very friendly one. I have another article coming up in the fall as well, so hurrah.

It is a little strange to be writing alumni profiles when I am one, but it’s certainly fun to chat with people as they reminisce about their experiences at USC. I’ve heard a number of wild stories – wild bears in a frat house, anyone? – that sadly couldn’t be included. They’re rumor and conjecture, anyway. But everyone remembers the university so fondly, and I think once I have the same distance of time and professional experience, I will feel the same. At this point, my education is too close and I spend too much time engaged with the university for it be a part of my past.

You can read the profile I wrote about Mitesh Gala ‘92, ‘93, and Ajay Shiv MA ’94 here.
