Born and raised in the Bay Area, I've worked in hyperlocal news, both print and digital, as a general assignment reporter for multiple outlets in the East Bay region. In April 2021, I moved to New York City. I'm thrilled to explore what lies at the heart and soul of the people and communities who call this incredible city home.
