About me

I graduated from the Missouri School of Journalism in May with a degree in print and digital news. I moved to New Orleans in January to complete my master's project researching objectivity as it applies to journalists in their everyday lives. I am living in New Orleans while I look for reporting jobs at newspapers and news Web sites. I am available for freelance work in and about the Greater New Orleans area. -- Jackie Borchardt
