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 a senior reproductive rights and health reporter for The American Independent (TAI News), a progressive political nonprofit news site.

In 2026, I was named a USC Annenberg Center for Health Journalism fellow, and in 2022, I was a Rosalynn Carter Mental Health Journalism fellow. My project was a series of articles focused on the mental health of Black teachers and educators in the U.S

I’m a proud member of the National Association of Black Journalists and a graduate of Carnegie Mellon University.
