About

I am a graduate of La Salle University (Class of 2017), with a Bachelor of Arts in Communication (Mass Media and Journalism), and Spanish. I am currently enrolled in the university's 1-year Strategic Communication master's program and anticipate graduating in August 2018. Upon graduation, I will be pursuing a career in television production. I am a talented, organized, reliable and driven individual, ready to begin my career as a coordinator, manager, assistant or however I can best utilize my skills and knowledge. My ultimate goals include production managing and producing, however, I recognize the path there is not an easy one and thus am willing to do whatever it takes to reach my desired destinations. I am a very hardworking, determined individual; creative and independent, as well. I formerly served as the play-by-play broadcaster for La Salle University women's basketball and as an executive producer and co-host of "Q&A" (a variety game show) on La Salle TV, among several other positions.
