About me

   

Age: 24
HOMETOWN: Los Angeles
CURRENT HOME: Chicago
DEGREE: MA, Journalism
FAVORITE WRITER: Hunter S. Thompson

When  I first stepped foot on Stanford's campus as a freshman, it was a  foregone conclusion that I would major in creative writing. I took that  invaluable experience and built on it during my time in UCLA's  journalism program.
Now I have the daily privilege of using words  to help bring new worlds into focus, important issues to the forefront,  and positive change to people and their communities company – recent changes to operations, the latest company softball game – or the industry you’re in. General business trends (think national and even international) are great article fodder, too.
