As a child, I loved to tell stories. I would spend hours pouring over construction paper, crayons, and a few too many spelling mistakes to make sure I was telling the story correctly. As I grew, I found a love for telling other people’s stories; the stories that were both raw and real, without those spelling mistakes. And in that, I found that it is not about telling the story correctly but telling it truthfully.

As a student and journalist at Emerson College, I believe that news is what we must use as a platform to project voices. I find both passion and purpose being that platform.
