Hi! I cover Southington, West Hartford, Farmington, Simsbury, Greater Hartford, Avon, Berlin and Canton for Patch.
I grew up outside of New Haven and graduated from UConn with a journalism degree in May 2020. Prior to joining Patch, I interned at the Houston Chronicle via the Dow Jones News Fund and was an editor at a local newspaper in Rhode Island.
When I'm not writing, I can be found having game nights with my friends, listening to Broadway music or talking about my time in the Disney College Program.
I would love to hear from you! Please reach out via email: gabby.debenedictis@patch.com and follow me on Twitter @gabbydeben.
