What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to grow as a writer and communicator, ideally in a collaborative environment that values creativity and innovation.

I am a passionate writer and communicator, currently pursuing a Bachelor of Arts in Writing, Literature, and Publishing at Emerson College, where I am set to graduate Magna Cum Laude in Spring 2025. My academic journey has been marked by a commitment to excellence, as evidenced by my consistent placement on the Dean’s List and my recognition as the 2025 recipient of the Emerson Senior Writing Award for my non-fiction essay, 'The Girl Who Flew.'

In addition to my academic achievements, I have gained valuable experience in various roles that have honed my research and writing skills. As a Calibration Technician at Quantum Biotech LLC, I have developed a strong foundation in laboratory settings and mechanical engineering. My internship experiences, including roles at Sustainable Transportation Vermont and Seaside Sustainability, have allowed me to engage in impactful research and communication efforts, from writing articles to implementing community programs.
