What I'm looking for

I'm looking to apply my research-driven curiosity across writing, journalism, audio, and media work, especially in roles where I can investigate topics deeply and communicate compelling stories.

I researched how newcomers learn organizational culture through workplace rituals in restaurants at the University of Maine, resulting in an Honors College publication.

I've published a screenplay, Borderline: The Complete Screenplay, and contributed writing to The Maine Campus, Metal Temple, All About Jazz, Bangor Daily News, and Katahdin Region News. My work is driven by constant reading, listening, and watching across history, true crime, and other media.

I've also cohosted, produced, and provided audio technical support for radio and podcast programming, including 91.9's That '90s Show and Two Dollar Banana.
