Personal Statement

Hello,

My name is Grace Erwin, and I am a graduate of George Washington University with a B.A. in Journalism and Mass Communication. I previously worked in the digital department of NBC5 Chicago and now work at WCPO 9 News, where I write articles daily for the website.

During my time in local news, I have garnered experience in news reporting, feature writing, SEO, AP Style and more. I reported on local Chicago news as well as the Paris Olympics and the presidential election. At WCPO, my “Cincinnati Celebrities” series showcases residents making an impact.

My work has been published on NBC News National, NBC5 Chicago, WCPO 9 News, Rewire News Group and Planet Forward.

My body of work showcases my ability to interview sources and write digestible, compelling content to inform audiences of the events in their communities and around the country.
