Biography
Julia Shumway is a digital journalist and alumna of Arizona State University now covering the Nebraska Unicameral Legislature as part of a two-person team for the Associated Press. She's also covered city and county government in southeast Iowa, served as a thorn in the side of Arizona politicians as a political fact-checker at the Arizona Republic and brought fresh design ideas to Iowa's oldest newspaper, The Hawk Eye. Before joining the Hawk Eye team, she led ASU's student newspaper, The State Press, to becoming an entirely digital publication, doubling its reach in the process. Julia combines strong reporting and editing skills with a grasp on how to attract and retain audiences online. She's most passionate about political watchdog reporting that holds powerful figures accountable and translates complex issues for everyday people. And come the end of June, she can work for you.
