I’m a multimedia journalist and writer based in Boston, MA. I completed my Bachelor’s Degree in Journalism at Emerson College. My minor in Digital Media led me to incorporate my reporting skills to online, print, and audio as technology continues to evolve.
My work has involved reporting local and international topics for WEBN-TV News in Boston and Political & Economic Media in Taiwan. Most of all, I value the process of sharing people’s experiences and elevating diverse voices through the power of storytelling.
