I am a reporter for ABC11 Eyewitness News based in Fayetteville, North Carolina. Every day, I can be found at the top of the afternoon and evening broadcasts reporting on the biggest issues of the day including crime, politics, the U.S. military and many others. Before my current position, I was a reporter and Report for America (RFA) corps member for WCPO in Cincinnati, Ohio from 2020 to 2022. In my distinguished title as an RFA journalist, I primarily reported on gentrification and other societal issues disproportionately impacting marginalized communities. I began my TV reporting career in 2017 as a foreign correspondent in Liberia, West Africa where I freelanced for outlets including the Voice of America and the BBC. Two years later, I received a Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting grant to produce coverage on the aftermath of a sexual abuse scandal in Liberia.
