Seattle Seahawks

Seattle Seahawks

I joined the Seattle Seahawks as a contracted writer in July 2020. My main role is to write the daily “Round-Up” article on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday each week. In addition to those three stories each week, I am available for extra work whenever it is needed. The extra work includes features and stories on team events held in the community. I also filled in for the Seahawks’ team reporter in November 2020 while he was on paternity leave. During that month, I was the full-time writer for the team from Monday-Wednesday each week. This included writing news stories, analysis pieces and press conference reactions, along with my usual Round-Ups.

This page includes a variety of stories from my time with the Seahawks — Round-Ups, features, community stories and more.

Amazon, Seahawks Partner To Help Renton With Remote Learning

The Seattle Seahawks and Amazon are partnering to help address the challenges students in the community are facing as they continue remote learning.

The COVID-19 pandemic has presented many issues for students coming from low-income communities, as remote learning is even more difficult when there is no access to necessary resources (high-speed internet, computers, etc.). The Renton School District leadership has shared that the two biggest challenges facing students learning remotely are internet connectivity and student morale – which are even more prominent in low-income households.

To help alleviate these challenges, the Seahawks and Amazon are addressing students' needs in the Renton School District, which is home to the Seahawks' training facilities and close to Amazon's Puget Sound headquarters. Many Seahawks players, staff members and Amazon employees live in the district, too.
