Welcome to my digital portfolio!
I am a science journalist and currently enrolled in NYU's Science, Health, and Environmental Reporting Program (SHERP). I cover climate change, ecosystem science, and conservation. I am interested in stories of health systems and the people implicated in them.
My recent obsessions include emergency medicine and the ways patients, paramedics, and policymakers are working to improve the 911 system. I previously covered climate change, coastal resilience, and creatures big and small for the US Fish and Wildlife Service's Northeast region. That work brought me to the remote islands of coastal Maine to report on ocean plastic pollution and to the far forests of Northeastern Vermont to cover climate-adaptive tree plantings. I studied English and environmental studies at Amherst College, where I was the Editor in Chief of the student newspaper, the Amherst Student. I saw the publication through the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic, where I lead our coverage and our transition to a (temporarily) entirely remote publication. As a student, I spent a summer as an intern at Forbes, where I covered environmental action. I also worked as a production and social media intern for the New England Public Radio show and podcast, In Contrast and spent a semester with the host, my professor Ilan Stavans, learning about radio production, from the broad idealistic to the nitty-gritty logistics of Audacity. A Massachusetts-local, I am now based in New York City, where I spend as much time as I can in Central Park, funky restaurants, and pretentious wine bars. |
