She also spent a year at Northwestern University’s Medill School of Journalism. Avery has interned at two NPR member stations: WNYC, where she produced segments for the daily interview program The Leonard Lopate Show, and WUNC, where she worked in the News department writing stories for the web and air. She has also contributed to various online publications, including Elle and College Candy, where she wrote a weekly news column summing up the week’s events for a college-aged audience. During her time at UNC, Avery worked as a marketing specialist for the UNC School of Government, which aids and trains local government officials.
The Beth Daley Impact Fund Fellowship was created to honor the legacy of Beth Daley, a longtime POGO employee who left a lasting imprint on the organization.
