Each issue of Mt. Lebanon Magazine features three to four in-depth stories, along with cover designs—and these are a few of my favorites. Because the publication is municipally sponsored, at least one feature per issue was dedicated to local government topics. I especially enjoyed the challenge of transforming less inherently exciting subjects—like inspections or sewer lines—into engaging, accessible stories that were fun and easy to digest.

The biggest hurdle was always timing. With tight deadlines and unpredictable content delivery, careful planning and nimble time management became essential tools in ensuring every feature was executed successfully.
