News InternI'm a senior at Lehigh University and managing editor of editorial content for Lehigh’s student newspaper, The Brown and White. I will graduate in May with a degree in journalism and minors in marketing and political science. My passion for journalism stems from my love of learning and writing. With each story I’m privileged to speak to new people and delve into topics I may have never explored otherwise. Outside of the newspaper, I enjoy painting, drawing, and watching new movies and TV shows. Contact me at nicoleh@lehighvalleynews.com or 610-984-8143.
