Since returning to the US, I’ve been able to offer a unique vantage point—seeing America from a global perspective and also translating the US experience for an international audience. I’ve taken deep dives into issues important to American voters, including childcare costs, the future of US manufacturing, and inflation.

Before moving abroad, local news across New York’s tri-state area was my beat. I covered murders, fires, protests, parades, countless election campaigns, and Hurricanes Sandy. My stories were heard on CBS Radio Network, National Public Radio, and their local affiliates. I enjoy taking on leadership roles in the newsroom and out in the field. As an output editor and senior producer, I’ve made critical editorial decisions under tight deadlines and managed teams in high-pressure situations.

I had the privilege of mentoring the next generation of storytellers as an associate professor at the Craig Newmark Graduate School of Journalism at CUNY. It was an incredibly rewarding experience to help new reporters develop their voice and learn to think critically.

My academic path began with a degree in International Affairs from The George Washington University, where I earned a scholarship to study in Cameroon, Central Africa. I later returned to my hometown of Philadelphia to complete a Master’s in Journalism at Temple University which gave me the foundation for a career built on impactful reporting.

While journalism is my calling, it isn’t my first career. At seven years old, I joined the national touring company of Annie and then spent nearly a decade in show business, working between New York and Los Angeles in national commercials, voiceovers, and regional theater. That early start in performance shaped my confidence, timing, narrative sensibility, and skills to connect with diverse audiences.

I’m looking for opportunities to collaborate with curious and talented people who are passionate about thoughtful and memorable storytelling. DM me if that’s you.
