Meshing her design background with her passion for multimedia and investigative journalism, May is currently pursuing an M.A. in Journalism and Media Studies at the University of South Florida St. Petersburg. May's work has been featured on PBS's Washington Week with Gwen Ifill, as well as on her blog, where she covers social issue cross-overs between the West and Middle East.
