Elena Burnett - All Things Considered Assistant Producer

About

I am an endlessly curious storyteller. My passion for sharing the extraordinary world around me led me to study writing at SCAD, where I graduated summa cum laude and earned the Outstanding Achievement Award. I served as copy editor and editor-in-chief for our school newspaper, District, which enabled me to establish myself as an award-winning journalist. I am blindingly enthusiastic, easily amused, and excited by challenges waiting to be solved.
