I currently write for Entrepreneur Media as a business news reporter. I have interviewed Will Packer, Emma Grede, Sir James Dyson, Frank McCourt Jr., Zillow CEO Jeremy Wacksman, Barbara Corcoran, Reebok founder Joe Foster, Daniel Lubetzky, and Parks and Rec actor Nick Offerman for features.

I got my start in journalism when I cold-emailed Arianna Huffington an article I wrote about sleep for Thrive Global. Huffington made me a contributing writer for the publication and I continued to write over the years, completing fellowships at Business Insider, PCMag, and GovLoop in Washington DC. I also wrote for Forbes and financial trade publication InvestmentWires.

At Columbia, I was part of the Columbia Organization of Rising Entrepreneurs as an organizational committee leader (OCL). I was selected as one of 20 OCLs in an applicant pool of over 200 candidates. I co-led the club’s entrepreneurship via exploration program for a semester, connecting college freshmen with startups around New York City.
