Resume

Professional Summary

First and foremost, I am a storyteller. I believe that every story deserves to be heard. Communication is an art, and I strive to use my voice to bring light to underrepresented stories and diverse perspectives. My experiences and coursework provide me with a strong foundation for work in the world of media. I have previously utilized my problem-solving skills in the newsroom, academic, and non-profit settings. Accessibility is my passion, and the business behind production fascinates me.
