About Me


About

I love meeting new people, putting myself in their shoes and documenting what their lives are like. I’m the visual journalist on the Milwaukee neighborhoods reporting initiative at the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. I work on a small but mighty team of journalists telling community-focused and public-service driven stories in three Milwaukee neighborhoods.

Before landing here, I worked as the staff photographer at INDY Week in Durham, N.C. Before working at INDY, I completed my photo fellowship with the Tampa Bay Times. I’m a graduate of UNC-Chapel Hill with a degree in media and journalism. My love of photojournalism led me to join the photojournalism staff at The Daily Tar Heel, where I became photo editor my sophomore year. After completing my editorship, I co-founded a chapter of the National Association of Hispanic Journalists at UNC-Chapel Hill. My work has been seen at INDY Week, Tampa Bay Times, the Raleigh News & Observer, The Daily Tar Heel, The Associated Press, Enlace Latino NC, and NPR.
