Writing




I began my career as a writer with a specialty in multimedia visual projects, often through photography and filmmaking.
While at ESPN, I was a member of ESPN The Magazine and ESPN.com’s enterprise and investigative teams. I have profiled some of the most famous people in the world while also covering social justice, politics, culture, and mental health as a freelance journalist.
