About

I have always gravitated towards storytelling. Early on, my love for stories manifested itself in creative writing classes in elementary school - where I built intricate fantasy worlds inspired by the books I was reading. By middle school,  I had become enamored with performance - participating in musicals and plays at a local children's theater. Iambic Pentameter became the beat to which I marched through high school, as I relished in the chance to make others feel and see the world as the written word came to life at my manipulation. It should be no surprise then that I was attracted to broadcasting and journalism during my undergraduate career. My love of writing and my love of visual storytelling combined in a fact-based environment. While I will always argue that there is truth in the often fictitious worlds of literary and theater arts , the truth in news has its own kind of beauty. Bringing important information to people in an entertaining and interesting way is an art all its own, an art that I am ready to tackle and look forward to grasping as I make my way in the media industry.
