Who even am I?

I'm a multi-media journalist working towards a career in the music industry, hopefully as something in the tune of media management/production. I am currently the Lifestyle Editor at The Daily Titan, Cal State Fullerton's student newspaper, and work in multimedia with Free The Youth, an online music media and booking collective. Along with more AP-standard media I've produced, I am a media manager for a few musicians. Below are a few stories pulled from these sources and previous others. In this transformative time in journalism, I believe new ground is being broken in terms of what we do with media and how to use it, so it's exciting to be a part of the industry as is blooms into something new before us!

REVIEW: sting by emarosa

If Emarosa’s new album “Sting” is nothing else, it is undoubtedly, without question, fun.

The follow-up little brother to their break-out pop album “Peach Club” came out at just the right time to be the new electro-pop sound of the spring. “Sting” takes its audience through a variety of stories, feelings, and emotions while always maintaining this up-beat fast tempoed sound that has a way of commanding you to move along with it.
