I write on a range of topics, including the environment, education and infrastructure.
I graduated from Boston University in May 2023 with degrees in political science and journalism, as well as a minor in African American studies. Throughout college, I interned at The Richmond Times-Dispatch, Boston Magazine, The Dallas Morning News and NBC News. At these outlets, I covered all kinds of stories, including politics, transportation and features on local businesses. I was also the editor in chief of my university’s independent student newspaper, The Daily Free Press. I’m originally from San Antonio, Texas.
As a Times journalist, I share the values and adhere to the standards of integrity outlined in The Times’s Ethical Journalism handbook.
