Words can't describe how proud I am of this piece or how personal it was. But at the very least, I can say how grateful I am for such a stellar team kayla hewitt Dee Dwyer, and Deanna Hackney. bit.ly/3XMKZ5S

Rent is dumb expensive in D.C. Finding a place to live is hellacious. If you have ridiculous, infuriating, or otherwise teeth-grinding stories about trying to find an apartment right now, I and DCist/WAMU 88.5 would love to hear them: email me at [email protected] or DM me!

I can't stress enough how great it was working on a team with Abbey. I'd be looking at the editorial calendar and ask what IG thoughts she had about a story and invariably she had already spoken to the reporter and had a plan in place. Hire Abbey! You will not regret it.

One trend I have noticed as someone newly on the journalism job market is descriptions that read like a well-intentioned yet unintelligible AI-generated word salad. I'm afraid you can't just use terms like "audience engagement" without defining your terms.
