Hello!

I’m Austin Zeglis, a journalist pursuing my M.S.J. at Northwestern University’s Medill School of Journalism, specializing in Media Innovation and Content Strategy.

I’m currently based in San Francisco reporting general assignment stories for Bay City News, where my reporting has been picked up by major regional outlets like NBC Bay Area and CBS News Bay Area. I’m also the editor of Enjoy Basketball, an email newsletter about the NBA that publishes three times a week and is part of one of the fastest-growing brands in sports media.

I’ve sharpened my news judgement, journalistic instincts, and writing skills through my studies at Medill, along with hands-on experience in game day PR for the Chicago Sky and strategic communications at the American Lung Association.

I grew up in the Ann Arbor, MI area and graduated from the University of Chicago, where I served as a senior news and sports reporter for The Chicago Maroon, earning a B.A. in economics.
