Pointe Claire

Summary

I am currently a student journalist hoping to develop my skills with hands-on experience in news, writing, research and storytelling. I aspire to be a voice of change and relatability. I have shared my work through various platforms.

I have a personal blog where I post any form of writing: news and opinion pieces, creative non-fiction and poetry. I have published articles for Concodia's newspapers, consisting of news, opinion, and arts and culture pieces. The Link submitted my piece "The cedar and olive tree are forever interlinked," to the John H. MacDonald Awards for Excellence in Student Journalism for the feature category.
