About Me

I’m a journalist and audio producer, focusing on mental health, education, and social systems. I’m especially drawn to stories that reveal gaps in care, center community voices, and explore how people navigate and challenge the institutions meant to support them.

My Approach

My reporting begins with listening. Whether I’m interviewing a peer counselor, covering a community mental health initiative, or investigating access barriers in schools and clinics, I aim to uncover the human impact behind policies and systems. My goal is to tell stories that are deeply personal, grounded in research, and accessible to a wide audience.

Background and Experience

I earned my Master’s in Journalism at Columbia University and my Master’s in Psychology and The New School.

In addition to my work in journalism, I have experience across mental health care, nonprofit programming, and community-based services.

My past work includes developing and delivering mental health programs, conducting community assessments, connecting at-risk youth and older adults with mental health resources, and providing direct care in inpatient and residential psychiatric settings.
