About Me

I am currently wrapping up my studies in Western University’s Master of Media in Journalism and Communications (MMJC) program and a freelance journalist and fact-checker. I graduated from Toronto Metropolitan University’s (TMU) Bachelor of Journalism program in June 2025.

I’ve worked for The Eyeopener, Maclean’s magazine and most recently, CBC News’ climate/science unit.

Otherwise, I am a sports fanatic, an advocate for social justice causes, a fan of all things music/entertainment and a homebody. When I am not writing or editing, I can be found spending time with my friends and family or lounging around with our dog, Shelby.

A multi-media journalist pursuing to inspire change through stories of passion, purpose and social justice. Find my work at The Eyeopener, Intermission Sports and Maclean’s.

With lots of editing and fact-checking experience, I’ll lend relentless eyes to any edit.

News basics lead my work, but long-form and feature writing is my preferred medium for immersing in people’s passions and pursuits.

I have the digital skills, including OSINT, to find and tell online stories. However, I am committed to not using generative AI.

With experience producing for broadcast, podcast and social media, I can create stories for several audiences at once.

From sports to nature to events, I’m always happy to tell a story through pictures.

I seek stories of impact and injustice and apply a critical eye, whether on climate, education, social justice, sports or beyond.
