My work spans storytelling, strategy, and creative problem-solving — and this collection brings together some of the projects that have shaped my voice and sharpened my skills. From newsroom leadership to digital content creation, each piece reflects what I value most: clarity, curiosity, and work that makes an impact.
Online Articles
Below are two of my published online articles for The Daily Tar Heel, each reflecting my commitment to clear, engaging reporting and thoughtful digital storytelling. These pieces highlight my experience writing for a fast-paced newsroom, collaborating closely with editors, and crafting stories that connect with readers across platforms.
Loud division, steadfast resilience: 2025 Year in Review
“2025 was a year of fragmentation and divide. And when things shift at the state, federal or global level, it all trickles down. UNC does not reside in a vacuum — and this year reminded us of that, again and again. But with every controversy came students standing tall for what they believe in.”
Office DJ: Joseph Quinn, please don’t murder my dear George Harrison
“”When I need comfort, clarity or just a quiet moment to breathe, I turn to his songs. They’re not just notes strung together; they’re fragments of truth, wrapped in simplicity, but containing everything you need to get through the day.”
Print Papers
I have helped to produce The Daily Tar Heel’s weekly print paper since August 2024. As a copy editor during the 2024-25 school year, I placed stories on pages, wrote headlines and other copy text, proofread the pages, and so much more. I got to help build the paper from its very beginning each Thursday to the final product in Blue Boxes around campus each Wednesday morning. As one of the managing editors for the 2025-26 school year, I take a more overarching role by helping select which stories will go in the paper each week and overseeing the process of its creation. I also write the horoscopes!
Below are some of my favorite special editions I have worked on:
