Summary
Driven by a constant desire to deepen my understanding of the world, I aspire to be a Broadcast News Journalist. From hyper fixating on international occurrences to shining a light on local heroes, my passion lies in using my people-loving nature, strong communication skills, and knack for newswriting to make a positive impact through storytelling. Currently a junior at the University of Central Florida, I am on track to earn my bachelor's degree by the summer of 2026.
