EducationUniversity of Massachusetts Amherst September 2013-PresentCombining my major of Journalism with my Film Studies certificate has allowed me to combine my professional interests with my hobbies and passions.

Through studying journalism, art and communications I have been able to hone my voice and style as a writer and amateur journalist.
