ABOUT ME

I'm a journalist with a passion to explain complex issues and equip people to make informed decisions.

I have a solid foundation in news writing and can also shoot and produce mobile video, create interactive story elements and tell stories using social media. These skills make me a versatile storyteller and a productive collaborator in any newsroom.
