I am a national trends reporter for The Hill with a special focus on women's health. Readers will have seen my byline on pieces covering numerous topics, though, ranging from shifting ideas about alcohol to decreasing home sales. I started at The Hill as a speed writer for the Changing America vertical in 2021 before my work shifted to longer, enterprise pieces about a year later. I spent most of my childhood in Lexington, KY before moving to Massachusetts to attend Smith College where I majored in history. It was here that I dipped my toes in the waters of journalism. Eventually, I took the plunge and earned a master’s in 2017 at the Craig Newmark Graduate School of Journalism in New York City. Afterward, I spent three years working for local Queens and Manhattan newspapers. I began working as an education reporter for the daily freebie newspaper AmNewYork at the beginning of 2020. While there, I had the chance to cover multiple COVID-19-related shutdowns of the country’s largest public school system, disparities in remote learning, and the city’s Black Lives Matter protests.
