About

In my years reporting on studies, medical breakthroughs and outbreaks I have attained the expertise necessary to know my beat backwards and forwards. I have produced digital content at various outlets including VICE News, ABC News and Healthline. I became interested in health news after filming a short documentary following a man born with HIV, who was in need of a lung transplant. Watching the difficulty he faced has pushed me to focus on issues that are often marginalized including mental health, reproductive rights and HIV-related stigma. At Healthline I supervise breaking news content and helped launch the quick-turn initiative as well as a new article series that focuses on product reviews.
