About Me

I am a freelance journalist who loves writing about culture, politics, and their intersection on social media (especially how different platforms mediate reach and interpretations). I have written for print/digital outlets and also can draft broadcast copy. I have a background in financial communications and am eager and willing to cover any topic necessary. As an undergrad I completed my capstone research on the impact coronavirus memes had on virus information during the first weeks of lockdown and additionally the effectiveness of Chrissy Teigen's political persona on Twitter. My research in political communication has given me the skills to navigate complex and abstract ideas and distill them to be consumed by the average person.
