Written in a shoebox-sized apartment with a window framing Williams-Brice Stadium a stones throw away, "A New Gameday" celebrates what the rowdy crowd of Columbia, South Carolina did when COVID canceled tailgate culture for a full football season.

My first published article ever, in fact.

Being the Head Articles Editor for the Style & Culture magazine at the University of South Carolina was almost a full-time job on top of full-time studentship with a part-time internship. It made the two articles I was able to publish under my name that much more special.

"The Comfort in Tangibility" and "A New Gameday" hold a special place in the published works section of my heart.
