ABOUT

I started my reporting role in December 2022 after graduating from college in May 2022. I love working on the print side of journalism for a weekly paper! I have worked as a staff writer and news editor for my college newspaper, The Occidental, and served as Editor in Chief for my high school paper. My interest in investigative journalism has led me to start exploring career opportunities within journalism.
