About Me

I am Brayden Selk, a Journalism and Broadcasting double major at the College of Journalism and Mass Communications at UNL. I have a double minor in Theater and English. I am from the small town of Oakland, Nebraska. I am the president of the Society of Professional Journalists UNL chapter. I work as a student equipment manager at the Devaney Center. I am a writer for the Daily^er Nebraskan, the satirical paper at UNL. I mainly write for the "Seeds" section, which is the entertainment section. I have always loved storytelling and hope to build that skill in future careers and classes.

My portfolio includes writing samples, audio projects, photo examples and video projects.

I have also coded this website by myself with the help of introductory instruction from classes.
