What I'm looking for

I seek a dynamic role that fosters creativity and collaboration in media and communications.

I am a dedicated media associate with a strong background in digital communications and editorial work. My experience includes conceiving and executing impactful advertising campaigns for progressive policy advocacy, where I've driven significant increases in leads through strategic media placements. I have a proven track record of drafting statements for high-profile political figures, resulting in extensive media coverage across various platforms.

In addition to my media work, I have a rich academic background, having taught writing composition and poetry at Yale University. My role as an editorial assistant at The Yale Review honed my skills in managing complex editorial processes and evaluating submissions, ensuring high-quality publications. I am passionate about using my skills in writing, editing, and digital media to create compelling narratives that resonate with audiences.
