The child of two military parents, I grew up in Northern Virginia with big dreams and even bigger shoes to fill. So, I earned a Bachelor of Arts in English from Mary Baldwin University in 2019, and commissioned into the Army as an Intelligence Officer. Now I’m a civilian with an absurd amount of research experience and a desire to put it to good use.

While I pursue a Master of Arts in Journalism and Media Innovation at Emerson College, I’m also writing poetry and looking for opportunities to share community stories through podcasting and news reporting.
