Alma Mater: Indiana University

I'm an IU graduate and spent several years covering K-12 and higher education for both The Times of Northwest Indiana and The South Bend Tribune.

Most recently, I helped Inside INdiana Business launch a business and development newsletter in northern Indiana.

Outside of work, I love to read, catch up with friends over brunch and cheer on the Hoosiers.

I'm thrilled to join Mirror Indy! This talented team is as passionate about Indianapolis and community-driven journalism as I am.
