My Nonprofit Reviews

I was lucky enough to intern at the Reporters Committee in the spring of 2019. The organization is a force to be reckoned with: When threats to press freedom — for instance, the Julian Assange indictment or the unlawful search and seizure of journalist Bryan Carmody's work products —surface, the journalism community looks to the Reporters Committee for leadership and for action. Those who work for the Reporters Committee are empowered and energized by their platform; these mission-driven public servants are eager to go the extra mile to protect and advance the public's right to know. And as an aspiring press lawyer myself, I could not have asked for a more fulfilling experience. The brilliant and collegial Communications team members offered so much mentorship and support as they edited my blog posts on the Reporters Committee's litigation and amicus work, and the staff attorneys allowed me to engage with the organization's legal work by completing research and editing assignments. I feel eminently fortunate to have been a part of this organization, and hope to find other ways to take part in the Reporters Committee's work down the line.
