Professional Experience

A dedicated and popular writer and contributor with a voracious appetite for all things entertainment and pop culture. Special focus on women and queer representation, but not exclusive. Open to new adventures in the fields of entertainment, as well as projects outside of the scope that are a good match for my writing style. Patient, collaborative, ambitious, humorous. My pieces are always well researched, and when of editorial nature, balanced and heartfelt.
