1/ Today was @catlikeDanimal’s last day at the @TexasTribune as an Engagement Fellow. We were so lucky to work with her this Fall.
HEY hiring managers: She's job hunting. Cat just graduated with her master's.
She’s fantastic and would be a great addition to your team.

2/ As an engagement fellow, @catlikeDanimal worked on newsletters, socials and reported out explainers for our site.
She helped readers navigate and understand what was a really busy couple of months of news — and I was always grateful when she was on shift.

3/ She pitched, wrote and deployed this really fantastic thread explaining what to expect from COVID-19 numbers during the holidays.
Cat was constantly thinking of how we could help the audience with threads like this. https://twitter.com/TexasTribune/status/1331745130144030722

4/ She did a great step-back thread looking at the most recent scandals involving Texas AG Ken Paxton.
This is one of the things I send people who are trying to get caught up. https://twitter.com/TexasTribune/status/1313871499401412608

5/ She looking into how to become a poll worker and what poll workers did in this really great explainer https://www.texastribune.org/2020/09/21/texas-poll-worker/
6/ She worked on our voter guide, helping readers prepare for a huge election https://twitter.com/bobbycblanchard/status/1308126857502564352
7/ She has another story coming out soon that I will share as soon as it publishes.
That story does what Cat does best: Helps the reader understand how the news impacts them.

8/ Her copy was always clean; her writing always concise. Cat was constantly thinking about our audience and for our audience.
9/ Cat was also incredibly fun and pleasant to work with, talk with and be around.
We met weekly for a 40-minute virtual check-in, and would often be done with our agenda in 20 minutes. I was always trying to find an excuse to keep our check-ins going.

10/10 Cat made me laugh every week. Our check-ins and her virtual presence were a very bright light in what has been a difficult fall of news.
Anyone would be lucky to work with her.
