Get to Know Me

About

I'm a MSW candidate at Boston College, graduating in May 2026. I am most passionate about how research on technology's effects can drive meaningful change, for individuals, organizations, and policy. In 2023 and 2025, I worked as a freelance editor for two New York Times #1 Bestsellers: The Anxious Generation and The Amazing Generation.

Before grad school, I developed strategic tools, frameworks, and training programs at Bay Cove Human Services. Before that, I managed partner relationships and translated complex data into strategic recommendations at Comscore. I live and work in the Boston area. Outside of work, I love spending time in nature with my dog Bewley, having game nights with family and friends, and exploring new places.
