About Me

Picture
My cat Simba and me. I promise he loves me and is very photogenic when I'm not holding him.
I started my professional career as a writer in March 2023 as a Digital Producer at WETM, my hometown's news station. I left my news-writing position in March 2025 after completing a two-year contract.

​​I graduated Ithaca College with a BA in journalism in May 2019. While attending Ithaca College, I had a minor in anthropology, was a member of two national honor societies, and was the editor-in-chief of Ithaca’s chapter of Her Campus. I was involved with this online magazine as both a writer and an editor for my entire time at Ithaca College. Prior to transferring to Ithaca, I studied communications with a concentration in journalism and public relations at Adelphi University for one year.

In my spare time, I enjoy reading, watching movies, playing video games and caring for my growing plant collection. I live in Elmira Heights, New York, but my goal is to relocate to a big city.
