ABOUT ME

I am an award-winning multimedia journalist and compelling storyteller passionate about bringing impactful stories to life through both broadcast and digital media. I graduated from James Madison University in May 2024 with a Bachelor of Arts in media arts and design, with a concentration in journalism.

 

While at JMU, I was an active member of BreezeTV, the university’s student-run news organization. There, I produced weekly broadcast packages and VOSOTs, conducted interviews, edited video content, and worked both behind and in front of the camera. This experience taught me how to thrive in fast-paced newsroom environments while reporting ethically and accurately.

 

Since November 2024, I have worked as a writer and producer at Kollins Communications, where I have gained hands-on experience in all aspects of production — from scriptwriting and storyboarding to camera operation and video editing. My work spans preproduction, production and postproduction, and has strengthened both my technical and creative storytelling abilities.

 

As a multimedia journalist, I am committed to giving a voice to the voiceless. I’m passionate about covering a wide range of topics, including politics, human interest stories and sports. I approach each assignment with curiosity and care, always aiming to find fresh angles and tell stories that resonate.​

 

While I am comfortable working independently, collaboration is a core part of how I operate. I thrive in team environments where ideas are shared freely, and I believe strong journalism is built on teamwork and trust. I am eager to continue learning and growing in the field and excited to bring my skills, energy and passion for journalism to a professional newsroom.
