Journalist (features, news, sports)

United States

I cover news for The Daily Emerald in Eugene, Oregon. Recently I have specialized in labor coverage, both breaking news and investigative work. In rural Northern California, I covered local politics and protests, festivals and sports. My work has been published in The Daily Emerald, Eureka Times-Standard, North Coast Journal, Humboldt Sports, and The Pepperbox. I mostly work in print/online but I have experience with video, audio and on-camera roles. I was an active member in my high school newsroom, and I'm currently studying Journalism, Science Communications and Spanish at University of Oregon.
