About

Born and raised in Santa Monica, I am currently studying broadcast journalism at Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois.

Having traveled extensively throughout the developing world, my passion resides in bridging together individuals from vastly different backgrounds through documentary storytelling as well as through building communities of diversity based off of shared experiences. This past year, I co-founded and am now president of MIXED, Northwestern’s Mixed Race Student Coalition which consists of over 60 individuals from a variety of social, racial, and geographic upbringings. So far, my travel experiences have taken me throughout China, Cambodia, Israel, and Europe. I also served as a Medill ambassador at Northwestern’s satellite school in Doha, Qatar over spring break and will be going to Hamburg, Germany this summer to conduct a Holocaust Oral History research project.

When I’m not traveling, I loves to stay active, whether running, hiking, dancing, swimming, playing tennis or attempting any new sport. She also fills her free time playing piano, soaking up the sun, writing in one of her many journals, spending hours skimming books in Barnes and Nobles, eating and cooking really good food, and I’m always brainstorming my next new project or great adventure.
