My areas of coverage include everything from beauty and fashion to celebrity news and entertainment to lifestyle and travel. In the past, I have written for several entertainment, fashion, and lifestyle publications. In 2021, I was selected as the 'Top Media Studies Graduate' when I graduated magna cum laude with my bachelor’s in journalism from San Diego State University. After undergrad, I headed straight to graduate school and am currently in the final semester of my journalism master's program at New York University.
