Journalism

As an Emmy-nominated television reporter and anchor,
​I’ve been the voice for many who didn’t have the platform to speak out and I’ve never backed down from a challenge. 


As a multi-media journalist, I start from the beginning, finding pieces of each story's puzzle, interviewing subjects, shooting video, writing script, and editing it together to create succinct narrative. I thrive when combining pictures, sound and words to narrate and inform. It's weaving emotional recounts into my visual story telling that proves meaningful.
