About

Currently, I'm the A.M. Assignment Desk Editor at ABC10 (KXTV) in Sacramento, CA. A large portion of my role is interacting with a variety of people, ranging from US Representatives to those affected by the city's homeless crisis, in a professional manner while setting up interviews, scheduling events, and gathering information. I also answer phone calls for the majority of the newsroom, enter events into ENPS for our reporters, and give photogs field assignments daily, as well as write the occasional digital article for the ABC10 website. I worked for the 23ABC News team in 2022 and 2023 as a Digital Content Producer. In my role, I managed KERO's social media accounts and created original news articles for the website. I also occasionally wrote up broadcast reporter packages for the website and larger articles for E.W. Scripps. Formerly a video game journalist at GameGrin.com/GameOn Magazine. I mainly wrote about then-current video game news, but I also wrote reviews and opinion pieces. In the past, I did freelance journalism on the side. I've written for and taken photos for publications such as the Kern Valley Sun, the Renegade Rip, and the Bakersfield Californian, as well as various online blogs. I have an Associate's Degree in Journalism from Bakersfield College, as well as an Associate's in Liberal Arts. Formerly a concert photographer in California and Wisconsin.
