Alyssa Noel 

Edmonton, Alberta

Professional Experience

With 20 years of journalism experience, I have a few wildly varying beats under my belt. In Edmonton, I covered crime. In New York City, I wrote about music and arts. In Whistler and Squamish, I covered environmental issues and mountain history. In between, I served stints as editor and assistant editor, putting together newspapers under tight deadlines, ensuring accuracy. For all those years, I've been on staff at magazines, community newspapers, daily newspapers, and alternative weekly papers--as well as contributing to all of their websites. Now, as a mother of two young kids, I'm excited to pursue freelancing.

Education

I have a Bachelor of Journalism degree from Carleton University. I also have a Master of Arts in arts writing from Columbia University's School of Journalism.
