As a video production assistant at Northeastern Athletics for two years, I worked directly with our athletic programs, spearheading social content during games and in the studio. Additionally, I led camera and graphics operation for our NESN and ESPN broadcasts.

As sports editor for The News, I managed the coverage of all Northeastern's teams, pitching and editing all content and coordinating schedules with all our writers and photographers. Later serving as audiovisual editor, I led the paper's push for vertical video across our predominantly written sections, shooting and editing a majority of the content.

In July 2024, I traveled to Peru with Northeastern University to gain multi-media journalism experience in the field. I produced a human-interest story about the abandoned cat population in Miraflores, Lima, along with assisting in the production for a segment of WCVB's Chronicle, which aired in Sept. 2024.
