I'm a Philadelphia-based journalist who loves
words, finding stories in unexpected places,
being in a newsroom and discovering answers
to questions that make us all curious. I specialize
in arts and lifestyle reporting, but I love when
those stories intersect with a larger social
trend or issue. I'm currently a City Life Reporter
at the Philadelphia Inquirer, which means I try
to help Philadelphians live their best lives through
the stories I write.
I graduated magna cum laude from
Northwestern University in 2017 with a journalism
major and an Asian American Studies minor.
My writing has appeared in The Boston Globe,
The Denver Post, Cape Town's Weekend Argus,
The Huffington Post and the News & Observer.
Recent work:
Pop violinist says he hears himself in another
performer's videos - The Boston Globe
Somerville teen makes balletic leap - The Boston Globe
Colorado composer turns experience with postpartum
OCD into powerful quartet - Denver Post
In mural exchange, Kosovo and Colorado artists paint
in unity in Swansea - Denver Post
Transgender clinic's 25-year waiting list* - Weekend Argus
Battling a double dose of discrimination* - Weekend Argus
*These articles are part of an 8-article package on the
transgender community in Cape Town, South Africa.
