Welcome to My Journalist Portfolio

When I was 18, I got my first story published in my high school paper. Granted, back then, it must not have been my best writing, but one thing I learned from that experience was that I had some hidden purpose. 


I had that story edited four times before it came anywhere near publishing material, but I didn't give up. Much like my strive to get published, I inked my skin with words that speak solely to my brand "Querer es Poder" — a Spanish quote shared by my mother that has kept me going through my journalism career.


Now, years later still in the field, I once saw my name printed in The Record, my high school newspaper in Miami. I have published more than 80 articles since college. I have interned at NBCUniversal and continue to work as a content specialist for The Media School at Indiana University. 


My constant dedication to storytelling has allowed me to cover many news stories and uncover investigations. I'm well-versed in communicating with people from all walks of life and have developed and managed departments as a librarian. 


I hope that with my interest in news and research will allow me to complete my long-term goal as an investigative reporter.

PAST PROJECTS

If I haven't told the stories of my community, then what purpose does my job as a journalist have. 


Here are some examples of stories I have done through my time as a reporter. Although these works are published through different social mediums, I hope you find my story-telling impactful and sincere.
