About

I am a multimedia journalist who uses audio, photos, video and text to report on global human rights and social issues. 

Originally from Washington state, I studied International Relations and Spanish at Seattle University. During my undergraduate training, I studied abroad in Valparaíso, Chile for six months. Since then, I have worked across Latin America in Mexico, Colombia, Dominican Republic and Cuba.

In 2010, I moved to New York City to dedicate the first five years of my career to supporting education access in New York and globally. 

Since changing careers to journalism in 2015, I have interned in Mexico City, Bogotá and New York City for a variety of media houses and news organizations. I have reported on the Farc's disarming and peace process in Colombia, the Venezuelan crisis, gender violence in Mexico, U.S. national politics and social justice movements. 

I believe journalism is crucial to cultivating an informed, empowered and just society. With my work, I aim to promote the untold stories and humanize the consequences of corruption and injustice.
