For the Winter Semester 2015 I interned at the Grand Rapids Creative Youth Center. The CYC provides a place for kids in the Grand Rapids Public School area to come after school and exercise their creative writing skills and be tutored in different subjects in school. There, I worked on their monthly newsletter, some organization history keeping, and finally the designing, editing, and compiling of a book of the student's creative stories.
