So long, farewell, adios, goodbye

This Friday marks my last day at the Hays Free Press. After more than three years, I’m headed off to a new adventure. Reflecting back over my tenure, it’s been a great ride with plenty of ups and downs.

My career was in media relations and communications. Or as many call it, the dark side. Then again, the fourth estate can also be considered the dark side to some.

I started at the HFP in 2011 writing stories as a freelancer (for no pay). I moved into a paid cub reporter spot, despite being nearly 40 years old. Covering the city of Kyle, the Hays CISD and more was eye opening.
