About Me
Broadcast and Cinematic Arts student at Central Michigan University, minoring in Advertising, set to graduate in May 2022. Throughout serving as a head anchor on News Central and Central View Live and as a student reporter for WCMU Public Media and The Big Rapids Pioneer Newspaper, I have developed my own strong writing and performance skills.
I am responsible for writing, shooting, editing, and creating my own news packages for News Central and Central View Live. I’m also highly experienced in Adobe Premiere and Audition. Working as a reporter at WCMU Public Media has also provided me with additional writing experiences in an accurate and unbiased way through well-written and well-researched articles.

- Pitching story ideas and enterprise pieces to news directors and helping producers form the structure of the program
- Write and deliver stories as well as record, edit, produce all radio, tv, and newspaper/online stories.
- Informing the public about breaking news and current events on the local, national and international level
- Electronic Media News Writing taught the techniques and principles of writing and producing news copy for electronic media
- Audio Production taught the art and science of sound acoustics and basic audio and radio production
- Video Production focused on the fundamentals of video production technology, theory, and practical application
