Skye Senterfeit ‘03 fell into publishing more or less by accident.

Majoring in biology and Classics in the Honors College at the College of Charleston, she originally planned on going to medical school. But when a professor suggested she consider the publishing industry, everything changed. Today, she works as an associate photo editor for Travel + Leisure Magazine in New York City.

“I certainly didn’t set out on a career path to be a photo editor for a travel magazine,” says Senterfeit. “But I feel incredibly fortunate that that’s where I’ve landed.”

In the following Q&A, Senterfeit describes her experience at CofC, the value of the Honors College, and what it’s like to work at one of the top travel magazines in the world.
