ABOUT

I was born in New York City and raised in the suburbs of Manhattan before moving to the San Francisco Bay Area at 13. It was in an eighth-grade English class that I first discovered my passion for editorial writing and storytelling—a passion that only deepened through my early journalism experiences, including publishing my first perspective piece on KQED live radio and writing for my high school's award-winning newspaper, The Redwood Bark. Those experiences sparked a lasting interest in how stories shape culture, brands, and the way people connect with the world around them.

I am currently an incoming senior at the University of Michigan pursuing a degree in Communications & Media with a Business minor through the Ross School of Business. My academic and professional experiences have become increasingly centered around the intersection of fashion, media, and brand storytelling.

Through the Michigan Fashion Media Summit (MFMS), I have grown from Junior Content Writer to Senior Content Writer, producing feature stories, conducting industry interviews, and helping shape the editorial direction of the organization's digital publication. While studying abroad in Madrid in Winter/Spring 2026, I transitioned into the role of Digital & Social Liaison, bridging the editorial and social teams to ensure content remained cohesive across platforms while supporting the Summit remotely.

Beyond campus, I work with The Dirty Chic, a contemporary jewelry brand, where I help translate the brand's creative vision into digital storytelling through content strategy, creative direction, photoshoot production, and editorial content. During the summer of 2026, I expanded my perspective by interning under Forbes 30 Under 30 celebrity stylist Alix Gropper, gaining firsthand experience in the creative and operational side of the fashion industry—from styling research and client fittings to brand partnerships, production logistics, and luxury sample management. The experience deepened my understanding of how compelling fashion narratives are built behind the scenes and reinforced my interest in the business of creative storytelling.

Across each experience, my goal has remained the same: to understand not only how stories are told, but how brands, people, and ideas are brought to life through fashion, media, and culture. Whether through writing, creative direction, styling, or brand strategy, I am most inspired by work that connects thoughtful storytelling with meaningful visual experiences.
