Position: Real-Time Editor

When did you start working here? June 2016

Where else have you worked? I graduated from college in December, so this my first official full-time job. As a student, I completed internships at the Columbia Missourian newspaper, where I reported, edited and created infographics, and POLITICO Europe, where I reported on technology policy in the European Union. I was also once the worst shirt-folder my hometown Maurices outlet had ever seen.

Where did you go to college? The University of Missouri-Columbia. M-I-Z!

What are you most proud of when it comes to your work? I hope that I can help make unseen communities and stories in our area visible, both for the sake of educating people outside of these groups and allowing people within them to feel heard and recognized.

What are you most proud of in your own life? I’m really good at winged eyeliner.

All-time favorites:
Favorite movie: The Thing
Favorite TV show: Veep; 30 Rock.
Favorite Book: The Sundial by Shirley Jackson; The Master and Margarita by Mikhail Bulgakov
Favorite music: The Decemberists, The Mountain Goats and any other indie band with acoustic guitars and literary pretensions. Also, Taylor Swift. (I’m only human.)

Apps I can't live without: Cheddar Bay Biscuits at Red Lobster, definitely.
