I am a natural writer, a storyteller. I aim to create solutions to help others while using plain language in a creative manner to communicate ideas. It takes a level of creativity to captivate an audience, a skill I mastered while at the UNC Hussman School of Journalism and Media. But, as a storyteller, I take it a step further. When you hire me, you're not just getting a writer. As my friends and I tried to grapple with the uncertain future that laid ahead of us after graduating in the middle of the global pandemic, someone told me to “be the person who teenage you would be proud of.” Although I strive to be that bright and compassionate young woman that I always dreamed of, the person I want to make proud is a small girl I met in Spartanburg, South Carolina when I was covering the Carolina Panthers training camp in July 2019.This little girl with large eyes, freckles and the curliest hair I’ve ever seen stopped playing when she saw me walking down towards the field. I remember overhearing her say to her father, “I want to be just like her when I grow up.” And, that moment is what pushes me to keep going, to be a role model for that little girl. That’s who I am - a driven, proactive young woman who has a strong desire to help better this nation through my talents like writing. I’m a strong oral communicator and writer who is able to manage a number of projects at once on tight deadlines while maintaining a strong eye for detail. I’m a self-starter with a strong ability to think creatively in a fast-paced, high-pressure environment. I'm eager to learn and naturally curious. I love storytelling, which is why I have dedicated my time towards communications, marketing and writing. When you hire me, you're hiring someone who can build and run a brand or a project from start to finish, capturing the essence of it while appealing to audiences.
