There is no single way to tell a story. 

I started as a child, excited to tell her family about her day. Today I digitize visual elements of the world’s news with CNN and have written and produced stories on Black travel, women’s reproductive health and the effects of climate change. My experience with digital media, broadcast production, writing and editing helps me tell stories creatively while solving problems in unique ways. 

Recently, I accomplished both while pursuing my master’s degree in Journalism and Mass Communication with a focus on Emerging Media. The result was Flourish: an app that addresses miscommunication between women and their doctors. The app exists in the space where storytelling, design and technology meet – a space where I can tell the story of millions of women while creating a platform to help them stay informed and empowered.

The path I’ve taken as a storyteller continues to evolve as I explore ways to innovate and encourage change across mediums. My goal is to highlight stories in ways that have a lasting impact well after they are told.
