Writer Traveler Musician Environmentalist

Ever since I can remember, reading and writing have been my favorite ways to express myself and my favorite ways by which I come into contact with the infinite expressions of the world.

At Emory University, I pursued my passion further as a Creative Writing major; I also majored in Environmental Science after learning about the intersectional forces driving climate change—one of humanity’s defining challenges. I’ve followed these combined interests into environmental communications and poetry, which provide two vastly different ways to interact with the foundations of our society and world. In spring 2024, I completed IES Abroad’s Environmental Studies and Sustainability program in Freiburg im Breisgau, Germany. That summer, I completed a social media/communications internship for Oceantic Network, one of the United States’ leading forces for renewable energy.

When I’m not writing for class or work, I’m usually writing for my music blog, LaneListens (founded June 2020), reading something interesting that I’ll write about later, or writing out ideas for my metal band, Trash Compactor. If you start a conversation with me about Avatar: The Last Airbender, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, Twin Peaks, or anything music related, we’ll become best friends.
