Welcome to my portfolio and blog!
My goal as a journalist and a creative writer is to construct texts that challenge my audience to observe and evaluate subjects through new perspectives, helping them expand their views and knowledge. Through my journalistic and creative lenses, I create content that educates and entertains my readers and viewers.
When consuming media, I look for texts that make me think and help me understand diverse points of view. From listening to NPR News to reading the Wall Street Journal, I am constantly reading, listening, and watching materials that challenge me to discover more about the world.
I am always ready to learn something new and seek to expand my knowledge and develop my abilities as a content producer. I look for texts that sharpen my skills and introduce new perspectives to broaden my horizon.

Education
Rowan University
I earned my MA in Writing with a certificate in Creative Writing. I completed my master’s project and presented it at a symposium. My project was a fairytale fantasy hybrid novel loosely based on East Asian and Southeast Asian mythologies.
Montclair State University
I graduated with honors with a BA in Journalism and a minor in Chinese studies. I had the opportunity developed the university’s news broadcast, Montclair News Lab.
I was an executive producer of the weekly show. I was also a staff writer and photographer for the Montclarion.
And I studied abroad in Beijing, China to earn credits for my Chinese minor.
