Hey there!
I’m an award-winning senior digital and social media producer with experience at print, broadcast and online outlets, specializing in sports and entertainment. I enjoy getting the opportunity to explore and document the world across the digital space while telling all kinds of compelling stories.
I have a Master’s degree in journalism from the CUNY Graduate School of Journalism and a Bachelor’s in broadcasting from Montclair State University. During my education, I had plenty of unique experiences, including First Amendment disputes, setting up a college newspaper as an independent company, working on the sports desk of a major New York City newspaper and telling interesting stories surrounding NYC.
Since getting out into the working world, I’ve gained a ton of experience at WWE, one of the most unique companies in the sports and entertainment world. I’ve covered WrestleManias and SummerSlams, interviewed some of wrestling’s biggest stars and helped launch exciting programming on WWE Network while producing content for WWE.com, WWE’s YouTube channel and social media platforms with millions of followers. I even helped WWE establish itself in the GIF world, launching their official GIPHY channel, which has amassed over 12 billion views to date and won the 2019 Shorty Award for Best Use of GIF. I also led the team that launched WWE’s TikTok channel, which has become one of the premier sports pages on the platform, with over 25 million followers to date.
