July 2014 - Present
BA, Creative Writing
Stanford
I first honed my serious writing chops at Stanford and took away enough information to use for a lifetime...

I believe in the power of the written word. I've seen it transform lives first hand.
​
When I first stepped foot on Stanford's campus as a freshman, it was a foregone conclusion that I would major in creative writing. I took that invaluable experience and built on it during my time in UCLA's journalism program.

Now I have the daily privilege of using words to help bring new worlds into focus, important issues to the forefront, and positive change to people and their communities.
