At length:
I’m a graduate student at Boston University’s College of Communication,
studying journalism. I like narrative and magazine reporting the most.
When I’m not in class, I’m musing about pop culture and sex for
Elite Daily, a subsidiary of the Bustle Digital Group, or I’m doing
freelance assignments for Cosmopolitan.
In April 2017, just before I finished undergrad at Emerson
College, I joined Away in NYC as their first editorial intern. By
July, the editorial director and I had launched a boutique print
and digital magazine that published travel guides and in-depth reports
on creative communities and change-makers around the world.
As an intern, associate, and finally the magazine’s print editor, I kick-started
the Here Magazine newsletter, wrote over 100 articles, and reported
from 11 countries and 18 cities on five continents. Our cover stars ranged from
the "world's best female chef" Daniela Soto-Innes to TV star Jonathan
Van Ness and she-who-needs-no-introduction Serena Williams.

From 2015-2017, I was the first content editor at THINX, where I built a loyal following around my weekly newsletter before weekly newsletters from
brands were cool (read: "annoying" or "excessive") and I was once invited to
Gloria Steinem's apartment to talk period politics. She too loves
a bold accessory and the abolition of the tampon tax!
And because this wouldn’t be a proper personal website without
useless fun facts, my most harrowing wildlife encounters include:
•The time I locked eyes with a mature silverback in Uganda’s Impenetrable Forest
•The time I swam face-to-face with great whites in Gansbaai, South Africa
•The time(s) I stared down a cockroach the size of my thumb in Crown Heights, Brooklyn
