In addition to her experience in news, Euna also worked in the nonprofit sector as a marketing director. She helped build and grow a faith-based organization dedicated to empowering women of the local church. In 2020 she transitioned into working as a full-time photographer, covering lifestyle and weddings. But she continues to work as a freelance journalist and writer for commerce, beauty and health sites.

Laura James '15: After graduating Bryn Mawr in 2015, Laura moved to Atlanta to accept a news assistant position with CNN. She was always interested in journalism and grew up watching CNNI while living in Dubai. After two years at CNN, Laura decided to embrace her interest in media law with her job and attended Georgia State Law’s part-time J.D. program. Her job as a freelance content producer allowed for the flexibility to work and attend school simultaneously. She graduated with her J.D. in May and is currently studying for the Bar.
