About

I completed my undergrad at San Francisco State University with a degree in Creative Writing, then finished a Master's degree in Library and Information Science from Rutgers University. Though my educational trajectory doesn't exactly scream "sports media," I have found that it was a perfect fit for my position in Content Curation with Bleacher Report.

After a few years of studying in New Jersey, I am excited to be in my homeland -the Bay Area- and working in sports, a long-time passion of mine.
