A little bit about me
Ever since I was a child, I've always had a strong curiosity about the world around me. I feel like there are so many wonderful and cool things to explore. Different cultures, foods, cities, people, and the list goes on.
My senior year at the University of North Texas played a pivotal role in me exploring that. In Spring 2023, I took a class called Reporting on the Border which included a spring break field trip to McAllen, Texas and in Fall 2023 I was the Senior Arts and Life Writer at the North Texas Daily.
Both experiences were life changing and helped me grow as a person. In the Reporting on the Border class, I got to learn about what life is like for locals on the U.S./Mexico border. As the Senior Arts and Life Writer, I delved more into the arts and entertainment scene of Denton, Texas.
I believe remaining curious about the world around you and having the drive to explore that does the heart good. Every time, I've walked away with experiences and connections I'll never forget.
