Born and raised in Maryland, Old Bay pumps through my veins, and I have more flag apparel than I care to admit. Deep community connections have led me to award-winning stories on veterans' mental health and a secret skate park. I've been a Patch reporter since June 2020, covering Anne Arundel County and Baltimore County with a focus on feature stories and business news. The Maryland-Delaware-DC Press Association has recognized my work with nine first-place prizes and three second-place honors for excellence in journalism.
I graduated from the University of Delaware in May 2020 with a degree in media communication and minors in journalism and political science. I interned at FOX Sports, The Delaware News Journal and The Philadelphia Inquirer. I also led my college newspaper, The Review, as editor-in-chief during my senior year.
