I am an award-winning journalist with over a decade of experience in digital, print, audio, and broadcast media.

My independent work has appeared in The Nation, The Washington Post, Playboy, Colorlines, The Hollywood Reporter, HuffPost, VICE News, Bustle, NBC, Cosmopolitan, The Los Angeles Times, Capital B, and more.

From my early days writing about local businesses and reporting on the U.S.-Mexico border, I’ve been drawn to deeply reported narrative stories, focusing on culture and race and giving a voice to those who go unheard.

In addition to a thriving freelance career, I currently work as the reproductive rights and health reporter for The American Independent (TAI News), a progressive political nonprofit news site.

In 2022, I was awarded the Rosalynn Carter Fellowship in Mental Health Journalism. My project was a series of articles focused on the mental health of Black teachers and educators in the U.S
