As a child, I was known for developing a new interest almost every week. I dove deep into fandoms of sport, art, and music, along with history and current events. Over time, I realized the thread tying all of these interests together was powerful storytelling. The best storytellers capture the spirit of a moment by translating events into emotion. That idea continues to shape the way I approach my work today.

Outside of the office, that curiosity never really disappeared. I still enjoy exploring a wide range of interests and am always happy to talk about sport, art, or culture. I currently live in my hometown of St. Louis, Missouri. Despite my local roots, I have a strong passion for travel and international perspectives, having spent significant time studying and living in Accra, Ghana, and London, England.
