She is a contributing writer for media outlets such as Joysauce, Salon, and Teen Vogue, where she primarily writes on the culture beat (books, TV shows, fashion, and music criticism), and interviews creatives who drive innovation in their respective fields. Leveraging her DEI subject matter expertise, she is a trusted partner in providing multimedia sensitivity and authenticity reviewing, editing, proofreading, production, and transcription services for publishers and companies across different fields, including the Big 5 New York publishers, higher education publishers, and content service providers.

With a background in theater, she has written, directed, and produced her own skits and plays. She’s also written, directed, and produced her own digital video series, "In Conversation With” for Joysauce.
