Professional Experience

Continually published freelancer, I've covered entertainment news for the past five years. I also freelance as a publicity assistant and brand content marketing manager for artists and entertainment groups. A lover of the written word, music and travel. Ever since I can remember I’ve had this insatiable appetite for new characters and new experiences. When I was four I realized I couldn't go to Disney World every weekend, and at 24 I’m realizing it’s just as difficult to jet off to Dublin or Florence once a month. Writing, reading, and storytelling have become my adventurous reprieves in between my bouts of liberation and discovery abroad. Kurt Vonnegut, Margaret Atwood, Elizabeth Gilbert, Alain de Botton, David Sedaris..are just a few that have infused my mind and heart with irregular ideas, comic relief, and hope -- inspiration only matched by the melodies of my favorite musicians. Give me a good book, a plane ticket and a song.
