Drive​​
As someone who feels that any experience is worthwhile and beneficial, my diverse professional and academic background has shaped me into the writer that I am today and will continue to become. With now over five years of professional writing experience I feel that this well-rounded, endlessly curious approach has and will continue to make me a better writer, reporter, photographer and journalist. ​I know the meaning of working hard and working passionately and will continue putting 110% into everything I do.
