As Mirror Indy’s southside reporter, I’m excited to connect with different people around the south side of Marion County and provide news that’s driven by the needs of the community.
Before joining Mirror Indy, I covered health and education stories for WFYI — Indy’s local public radio station — and some of my reporting has aired on NPR and the BBC. My passion for teaching is why I’m a deputy managing editor for Next Gen Radio, a national mentorship program for early career journalists.
When I’m not reporting, I’m teaching yoga or HIIT classes, listening to podcasts or cuddling with my dachshund named Henry and my cat, Jheri.
