“I fell in love with journalism through fashion magazines, but it was a class at Boston University that sparked my passion for telling the stories of those who can’t. Since then, I’ve expanded my work across a variety of topics, always drawn to the overlooked, the misrepresented, and the cultural moments hiding in plain sight. When I’m not running late to class or studying, you can find me running along the river or beach—when the weather decides to cooperate, of course.”

Because people are pulled toward the unknown. There's something deeply compelling about not having the full picture. With someone's features sculpted into a cold expression, you can't read them.
