Next Generation Radio, 2014: Seattle

In October 2014, I mentored Alyssa Mendez Batista, a senior at the University of Puerto Rico, Río Piedras, as she worked on a first-person audio profile of Candace Johnson, the "positive reinforcer" of Jemil's Big Easy food truck in Seattle. (Yes, it was predictably chilly and drizzly that project week.)

Alyssa also shot this gallery of images from the staff's average day slinging gumbo, po' boys, and fried okra (that's "Okra Winfrey" to you).

She produced this story during the College Broadcasters, Inc., National Student Electronic Media Convention.
