ABOUT ME

Strategic Communications & PR · CU Boulder '26

I'm a recent graduate in Strategic Communication (PR emphasis) from the University of Colorado Boulder, with hands-on agency experience turning brand stories into earned media, social reach, and real audience connection. My work lives at the intersection of PR, media strategy, and culture — whether that's pitching press for a Milwaukee Brewers campaign, growing a client's social presence to over 5.3 million views, or designing graphics that make a message land visually.

I'm drawn to storytelling that goes beyond surface-level — content with intention, strategy with style. I bring both the creative instincts to craft compelling narratives and the analytical mindset to track what's actually working.
