I am an environmental and business journalist who has been freelancing since 2013. After getting a Bachelors of Science in Journalism with a minor in economics in 2016 from Eastern Michigan University, I spent 2018-2019 focusing on investigative techniques, international journalism and climate journalism while earning my Masters of Science degree in Journalism from Columbia University’s Graduate School of Journalism. I am currently looking for full time employment and am a candidate for several journalism fellowships.

My aspirations to start working in financial journalism were made real last February, when I was published in Sustainable Views; an environmental investment publication O&O by the Financial Times. It is a story about the second Trump administration’s attempts to end the wind power industry, and how successful or unsuccessful they are actually proving to be.

“You look surprised,” Kathryn Walsh, my editor at Hour Detroit, said when I got my first ever professional journalism award last year. She was right. I was!

It is an environmental journalism award from the Detroit chapter of the Society of Professional Journalists! It was awarded for an Hour Detroit story that I did called Detroit Underwater. You can find it under my work section.
