about me
I serve as the engineering lead for the Interactives News Engineering team at The Washington Post. My primary focus revolves around developing internal tools tailored to streamline our newsroom's workflow. My approach values collaboration and embraces creative flexibility, constantly seeking new challenges.
I hold a B.A. from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, with a major in Media and Journalism and a second major in Communications: Media Production, along with a minor in history. Currently, I am pursuing an M.S. in computer science at the Georgia Institute of Technology.
In my previous role, I functioned as a project manager and creative content producer at the Reese Innovation Lab. During this time, I collaborated on projects with renowned organizations such as TIME, Quartz, and the UNC System Office.
When I'm not working, I find joy in the company of my dogs Luna and Jax. I'm a devoted plant enthusiast and an avid reader (feel free to connect with me on Goodreads!).
