ABOUT ME

I tell stories that capture the character of Central Florida, focusing on the moments that define its communities. I previously covered the College of Sciences for UCF’s student newspaper, The Charge, and now serve as the men’s basketball beat reporter. My work has also appeared in The Community Paper, which covers about 34 Orlando neighborhoods, and Oviedo Community News, serving the Oviedo and Winter Springs areas. I am working toward a B.A. in Print/Digital Journalism at the University of Central Florida, with an expected graduation in Fall 2026.
