I'm a graduate of Flintridge Sacred Heart Academy. I attended Loyola University Chicago and earned a major in Journalism and minor in Political Science. I served as News Editor at The Loyola Phoenix.

My writing and reporting experience includes a focus in health, breaking news, politics, music and entertainment. I've written and produced digital content for podcasts, live action videos and social media content. I most recently served as Maria Shriver's social media and video producer, producing and promoting Maria's NBC health and news stories, books and journal, podcast and growing her social media community. I am an original member of ATTN: and former Los Angeles Times digital editor. My work has been published by Fitt LA, Glamour, Mashable, Men's Health and Panoply.
