WORK EXPERIENCE
WHO I AM

February 2015 - Present

I am a storyteller, first and foremost. I love


using words, images and design to tell
compelling stories about people their
peculiarities as well as their triumphs.
I have spent my fledgling career thus far
telling stories with newsprint and quick
turnarounds. I have led an award-winning
newspaper and have won some awards
myself as a reporter, editor, columnist and
photographer.
Now, I want to thrive in a different
environment telling stories with more
freedom and fervor. I find joy in testing the
boundaries of a story, which is more possible
outside the confines of a brief news cycle.
