About Me

I grew up in Boston, and I'll always consider it home. I went to college at Syracuse, which I miss more and more everyday. I spent the best three months of my life in London for study abroad.

I recently moved from North Carolina, where I worked as a producer for the ABC/FOX affiliate serving eastern NC. I love telling different stories everyday and having a final product to look at every night.

Now, I'm living and Connecticut and working at ESPN as a production assistant trainee. I still have to pinch myself when I wake up. I've dreamed of working there since I was a kid, and now it's real. It's been a little overwhelming, but I hope to stay at the company for a long time.

I am also a burgeoning cook and fantasy football goddess. Trash talkers, you've been warned.
