About me
I’m a recent journalism graduate from the University of Florida with hands-on experience in live news production, field reporting, and digital content creation. During my time in the newsroom at the University of Florida’s WUFT News and Sinclair’s The National Desk, I produced live broadcasts, built rundowns, wrote scripts, and helped bring stories to life across multiple platforms, all under tight deadlines.
Now based in New York City, I’m excited to continue growing in the media industry. I’m especially drawn to opportunities behind the scenes as a production assistant or on digital teams focused on storytelling. I’m passionate about telling impactful stories and combining strong editorial instincts with creativity and clarity.
I am proficient in iNews, ENPS, Avid, and Adobe Creative Suite, and I’m comfortable managing scripts, rundowns, video editing, and live production workflows. I pride myself on being detail-oriented, deadline-driven, and eager to learn from others.
I’m ready to hit the ground running, and I would love to connect.
