A bit more about me

My ultimate goal is to become a content creator for a MLB team whether it's through writing, photography, videography or production. Most of my experience is in writing, but I am open to any task. I started my journey into sports journalism at Arizona State University, attending the Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communication. I have had many opportunities learning new skills and networking with others in the industry. My first journalism experience was when I was a student journalist for AZPreps365.com where I wrote stories about Peoria High School Athletics. Working with AZPreps365.com, I earned the opportunity to become a freelance writer for West Valley Preps. In 2024, I volunteered with the NCAA Final Four Radio Row, where I assisted guests and radio stations. I work with the Milwaukee Brewers as part of their Spring Training Game Day Staff. During summer of 2025, I worked as a digital sports reporter for Cronkite News, covering local professional and high school stories. In fall of 2025, I will be a public announcer intern for Benedictine University Mesa.

​

Working in sports, I learned a lot of valuable skills and assets to create content. However, I learned that my passion for sports doesn't come from interacting with athletes and the chaos. It was the community that I loved to work with. Producing and creating stories with the community to enjoy is what inspires me.
