The Person
Behind the Work.
I'm a UNC Chapel Hill strategic communications student with a passion for the kind of storytelling that actually moves people. Whether I'm crafting a media pitch, mapping out a crisis response, or building community one event at a time — I'm always thinking about the human on the other side of the message.
I've spent my time at UNC collecting experiences that don't usually go together: interning at a full-service PR agency, studying abroad in Scotland, serving as a Resident Advisor for 250+ students, and representing CBS News in a live crisis simulation. I like the intersection of strategy and empathy, and I think that's what makes communications worth doing.
Outside of work, I invest just as much energy into my relationships. I'm an active sorority member who takes mentorship seriously, a community volunteer, and someone who believes curiosity is a professional skill.
