Practicing in the 21st Century

Alex Morgan Lederer is a certified freelance reporter who has worked in both New York and Florida. He started working during COVID-19 via Zoom depositions as opposed to other reporters who entered the field and immediately took in-person jobs. He is currently working towards achieving his RMR and CRR certifications. He has worked in courtrooms, doctors' offices, lawyers' offices, and the comfort of his own home. He looks forward to discussing the insights he achieved from entering into the field this way, which have now become the norm for new reporters. 

Bethan graduated CareerLuv in March of 2023 having obtained the RSR and WA CCR certification. She lives and works mostly remotely in Washington State. 

Bethan is finishing up her RPR certification and her next goal is to obtain a California CSR license.
