I’m 21, 5’11” and contrary to common assumptions, I do not play basketball.
I’m graduating from Syracuse University in May 2016 with a dual degree in newspaper and online journalism and political science, and a minor in English and textual studies. I’ve been lucky enough to spend time as the lead producer of Off-Campus News for The NewsHouse as a student at Newhouse.
I spent the last semester of my senior year working on a project concerning employment and poverty in Syracuse called Syracuse Jobs Matter. The project means a lot to me, so I would appreciate if you could check it out and/or share.
I’ve lived in the San Francisco Bay Area with my family since I was five. I enjoy traveling, socially conscious comedy and being around animals.
Diversity and representation in media matter.
