About Me

Born and raised in Columbus, Ohio, I've continued my academic career at The Ohio State University. I'm currently a senior pursuing a bachelor's degree in journalism with a minor in media production.

 

I’ve been crafting stories for as long as I can remember. I'm actively pursuing a career in journalism, and I am confident that my writing accurately depicts the truthful information I intend to portray.


I look at the world through a writer’s lens. I see stories in everyday life just waiting to be told and do my best to be the medium through which they reach the page. I excel in environments that foster communication and diversity.
