Ethan Meyers of The Astorian writes, “She soon settled on a double major of journalism and anthropology at the University of Oregon, where she graduated in June. She also graduated from the Robert D. Clark Honors College. Since her commitment to the career, journalism has taken her to several places across Oregon. Now, it will settle her in Astoria.
“McDonald will be covering business and tourism for The Astorian. Through her work in business and its many intersections with other topics, she will also be contributing as a lead reporter for the Coast River Business Journal.
