Sylvie Maye is a recent graduate of the University of Dayton in Ohio with a Bachelor of Arts degree in journalism and political science. However, she resides in Jacksonville, Arkansas (yep, home of Bill Clinton). Sylvie was Chief Staff Writer for her campus newspaper and loved it. She plans to attend the masters program at the University of Maryland in the fall of 2010 for broadcast journalism or whatever else looks interesting in the field of communications. In the meantime, she is interning at Tonic this summer as a writer in the Positively Good Writer's Program.
