Reporting pieces - Chilean newspaper "El Mercurio"

2011-2014

After my undergraduate studies I got the opportunity to be a journalist in one of the largest-circulation newspaper in Chile, El Mercurio. It was a lifetime dream that came true.

Over the first two years I worked for the Sunday edition, which is focused on long and in-depth stories, covering current affairs and publishing profiles, interviews, and stories.

​

Later, I became a financial journalist working for the daily coverage of financial markets and regulation, a position in which I learned techniques for the coverage of economic crises and financial scandals.

​

Beyond the topics, the newspaper provided me with the chance to work closely with other journalists, designers, experts in infographics and photographers. I worked closely with all of them as I learned to plan my articles from the written content perspective and always considering what quotes, photographs, infographics or graphs could I add in order to encourage and facilitate the reading.

This multidisciplinary work experience has encouraged me to always look for collaboration in my jobs.
