Name: Iesha Lewis-Crofoot

What are you currently studying in school or what did you previously study?

I’m a recent graduate of Villanova University, an English major with an interest in copyediting and copywriting. I have a previous career as a staffing/forecasting analyst working in the financial services industry, and returned to university to gain the education and experience needed to pursue a career in publishing, my passion.

What kind of career do you hope to have or what’s your current career?

Since graduation, I’ve been working as a freelance copyeditor for The Creative Group, in an effort to bolster my resume and stay current, as well as possibly get my foot in the door with a company. I guess it’s no surprise that in this job market finding work has proved to be an issue. Though I interned at a magazine last summer, the job market is so tight that there are unfortunately no positions available there. In any case, I accumulated a nice portfolio while there, and was grateful for the opportunity to do so.
As an aside, I have a history minor with a concentration in ancient archaeology, and just returned from my last course, a short study abroad in Egypt. I had a wonderful time during our site surveys, and I’ve decided that, as a 2nd option, while job-hunting I will investigate potential positions at museums, universities, research libraries, etc.
