About

I graduated from VCU's Honors College and the College of Humanities and Sciences. I double majored in Mass Communications with a concentration in both Digital and Broadcast Journalism and Political Science with a concentration in Politics & Government. I have extensive experience working as a reporter, as I have covered various beats in Richmond and the surrounding areas. I am an efficient worker and have no problem working under pressure with fast deadlines, especially when it comes to reporting on multiple stories at once. I also have had my own stories on Richmond local news as an intern. I aspire to become either a White House correspondent or political correspondent, covering predominantly political current events and presidential administrations.
