Madeline’s Journalistic Muses

This week, we’d like to introduce you to one of the writers in this week’s issue: our intern, Madeline Slogoff! From the arts, to community, to business and fashion, Slogoff has done a little bit of everything here at the Indy.

When did you start your internship at the Independent? Do you also go to school here in Santa Barbara? I started my internship at the Independent back in October, and it has been one of the most defining experiences in terms of my career goals and development as a person. I am currently a sophomore at UC Santa Barbara studying sociology and philosophy.

What was it like to talk with the Lucinda Lane band and what was your favorite part of covering this new album? As a music lover myself, it was insightful and interesting to hear from an artist about the nuances of the music-making process. I especially enjoyed the prospect of my conversation with the Lucinda Lane band because it is an honor to create a platform for local musicians and artists. It's my way of giving back to the Santa Barbara community that has given me so much!
