I approach all my work from an intersectional, analytical, and conversational angle, ensuring that all my clients and collaborators feel listened to and intentionally engaged with. I like to question, challenge and affirm. My vast experience allows me to have a unique perspective in the work that I do, especially as someone who runs a publication and is also a passionate consumer of media. I understand the complicated dichotomy of being both a creative/creator as well as being on the receiving end of it.

I am available for hire regarding all of my offerings below, and am happy to provide a more detailed resume upon request.
