I'm a multimedia student journalist at Cal State Fullerton with a concentration on social politics and the music industry. I am currently the Editor-in-Chief of The Daily Titan, CSUF's student newspaper, where I have gained experience in the news, lifestyle and opinion desks as well as hosting then executive producing our podcast. I also have freelance experience in media curation/content creation for musicians and independent record labels. 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!
