My passion as a writer comes from a newfound commitment to reshape the current, polarized media landscape. From a young age, I have been captivated by the power of storytelling and the impact it can have on shaping perspectives. My journey as a student has fueled my desire to challenge the status quo and contribute to a more informed and unbiased media environment.

Having left my hometown of Cleveland, TN with an Associates of Arts degree at 18, I moved to Lexington, VA to continue my academic career. As an intended Journalism major with a double minor in Philosophy and Law, Justice, and Society (LJS) at Washington and Lee University, I plan to focus on writing through the Ring-Tum Phi independent newspaper. I was selected to be the Web Editor, where I am working on creating more engagement for our online offerings. I am also interested in civil law and politics—more importantly how they intersect with the media.
