I'm a journalist and fourth-year student at Carleton University pursuing a Combined Honours degree in journalism & humanities.

I seek out stories based in arts, culture, community, intersectionality and politics, and aim to platform as many perspectives and voices as possible in my writing.

Currently, I serve as editor for the Charlatan's arts section, where I have written and peer-edited since September 2024. This summer, I handled the paper's full coverage of Ottawa Bluesfest.

Beyond the Charlatan, I have completed internships with the Ottawa Citizen and the Hill Times, and have had works published with Capital Current and Her Campus.


Thank you for your interest in my work!
