ABOUT ME
I’m a journalist and content producer passionate about connecting traditional broadcast storytelling with the way audiences consume news and culture today.
Currently, I’m a Production Coordinator at NBCUniversal Strategic Content, where I work across media partnerships and content production, helping bring sponsored editorial and branded storytelling to life across NBCUniversal’s portfolio of news and entertainment brands (TODAY, Meet the Press, Nightly News, Jenna & Sheinelle, etc.). My work sits at the intersection of production, journalism, social, and digital where I coordinate projects from development through execution while collaborating with producers, creative teams, clients, talent, and cross-functional partners.
My background spans broadcast journalism, social media, digital reporting, and original content. At TODAY as an NBC Page, I edited social-first content, worked with talent and celebrity guests, assisted producers with transcriptions, and helped translate broadcast and entertainment moments into engaging digital/social content. Across 170+ social posts, that work generated 150M+ views, 7M+ likes, and 2M+ reshares. I’ve also reported and published breaking news for NBC10 Boston/NECN, produced original news packages for air, and developed stories for digital and broadcast audiences.
At the core of my work is a love of storytelling, particularly finding the story, perspective, or moment that makes someone stop scrolling, lean in, and care. I ultimately hope to continue growing as a reporter and storyteller while exploring the many ways journalism can live beyond the traditional broadcast. I’m especially interested in opportunities across reporting, social and digital journalism, video, content production, and editorial storytelling.
To me, “speak your soul” means telling stories with purpose, curiosity, and humanity all while finding new ways to make those stories resonate with the audiences they’re meant to reach.
