Chad Neuman
I'm an internationally-published freelance writer and journalist with a master's in journalism and media studies from the University of South Florida. I have experience in copy and layout editing, web design, and visual communication.
I've worked as features editor, supervising layout editor, and copy editor for various newspapers as well as webmaster for the new media department of the News Chief. I've been the internet development director for an advertising design agency, designing web sites, newsletters, and even coming up with a slogan for a Publix/United Way event.
I was most recently managing editor of two international graphic design magazines (helping launch one of them). I am currently an assistant professor of communication, teaching media ethics, journalism, layout and design, magazine design and production, public relations and media advertising writing, writing for digital media, and photography.
