about me

I’m a multimedia reporter and recent master's graduate from American University with newsroom experience covering policy and politics in Washington.
​
Throughout my career as a reporter in Kentucky and Washington D.C., I've grown comfortable writing for a range of audiences on different platforms. I aspire to produce stories with an impact, which is just one reason I'm drawn to energy and environmental coverage.
​
As an intern for POLITICO's E&E News, I've covered the federal and state actions shaping climate policy and explored how these impact everyday people.
​
I’m comfortable in fast-paced environments and can produce accurate stories on complex issues under strict deadlines. In my newsroom experiences and as a student in the AU, Washington Post practicum, I’ve also developed investigative research and data skills.
