Paige Cornwell

I am a reporting intern at The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, a journalism student at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln and a Kansas City native.

Last semester I was an editorial intern at Vice Media in New York City and a USA TODAY Collegiate Correspondent.

In 2011 I was a reporting intern at the Lincoln Journal Star and a reporter for the Nebraska News Service. In January 2012 I spent two weeks at The New York Times Journalism Institute in Tucson, Ariz.

I am interested in international affairs, particularly in Southeast Asia. I've reported from Singapore, Cambodia, Indonesia, Sri Lanka, and Malaysia and hope to return to Asia soon. I also speak German, which once came in handy at the Journal Star when I translated the caption of a photo of Bruce Springsteen.

I once interviewed President Obama about hot dogs. I have the photo to prove it.
