A native Texan from the Dallas area, I now live and work in scenic Chattanooga, Tennessee. I worked as both a local and roving editor for Patch before becoming the company's internship liaison and training coordinator.
I now help train the next generation of journalists, along with incoming Patch editors, through a 12-week paid internship program and an onboarding curriculum.
I graduated from Louisiana Tech University with a degree in journalism before going on to serve as a Dow Jones News Fund copy editing intern at the Beaumont Enterprise in Beaumont, Texas. After that, I wrote for a variety of local publications in Dallas, including the Dallas Morning News and D Magazine Partners.
When I'm not working, I enjoy spending time with my dog, Max, and my cat, Harrison. I also like baking, cooking, running, spending time outdoors and listening to podcasts about true-crime, leadership, history and story-telling.
