Beth Treffeisen

I moved to Boston from New Rochelle, NY in 2011 to study journalism at Emerson College. Four years later, I found myself pulled into NewBostonPost, an exciting new adventure that takes journalism to the next level and gives voice to Bostonians who aren’t always heard. I’m excited about reporting stories of life in the city of Boston because there are so many aspects of this city that I love: the community, character, quirky rules, and the distinctive history. All of these unique attributes invite me in and welcome me into my new home. [email protected]
