I believe that and writing should empower people to make positive changes in the world around them. I’m passionate about telling these stories with research, empathy, and humor. I solve problems through creative brainstorming, I embrace diverse voices, and I’m willing to abandon sleep entirely to get the story right. I’m motivated by social justice and environmentalism, and seek to tell humanizing stories to progress these causes.
