NEWFOUNDLAND

summer 2015

Covering Canada’s most eastern province

After graduating from journalism school, I spent a summer driving around Newfoundland, collecting audio stories of all kinds for CBC’s Central Newfoundland Morning Show.

Rural reporting

Gander, Newfoundland, is most famously known for its hospitality in the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks. Here, I reported on its military history (awarding a dog for his service in WWII), the natural wonders (studying whales through social media, a bee keeper claiming his are the heartiest bees in the world), and hospitals using a robot baby to advance care.
