ABOUT ME

I'm a researcher and freelance journalist based in New York City.

Right now, I'm a Research Associate Producer at

Last Week Tonight with John Oliver at HBO. 

​

Previously, I was a disability reporter at The Texas Tribune. 

I covered accessibility issues and policy impacting disabled Texans as part of my second year with The New York Times fellowship program. I spent the prior year reporting on the Times’ National Desk covering disability, women's health

and general breaking news.

​

I'm incredibly passionate about holding government officials accountable, reporting on marginalized communities and centering how policy affects people. I always try to look at how the news of the day intersects with different groups of people, especially those with disabilities.

 

I also love my dog, reading fantasy and sci-fi,  and

attempting to bake. And I have a kidney transplant! 

 

Have story ideas? Want to connect?

Feel free to reach out to me about anything.
