I have been a story teller and seeker of truth my entire life. I have been working as a broadcast journalist for more than 15 years. I have been focusing on investigative stories and in-depth pieces for the past several years. I seek out stories that will engage viewers and leave them with something to remember, to add knowledge that can enhance their life in the long term in addition to entertaining them in the short term. I like to spotlight injustices to bring about awareness. These kinds of messages can impact people in a way that motivates them to improve the world. I like to spotlight potential dangers, especially ones involving children, because they are the world's future. My perspective on issues is influenced by my personal life. I am a devoted mother and caring wife. I am a second generation Italian-American from the western suburbs of Chicago. I am a sports fan, bicycle rider, and environmentalist who eschews consumerism but is trapped in the pitfalls of parenthood.

It's as simple as this: I'm passionate about words. Writing them, editing them, translating them, reading them. In a journey that’s taken me from the Midwest to Spain and back, I have gone from journalism to digital marketing, spanning print (newspaper, magazine), digital (articles, blogs, website copy, social media, email marketing, ads, SEO), B2B, and B2C. I have 13 years of writing and editing experience, 11 years of translation, and 10 years of digital marketing in tech startups, specializing in SEO-optimized content creation, management, and strategy. In my freelance work, I'm a natural-born storyteller whose niche is language, culture, travel, and tourism—especially after spending almost my entire 20s in Europe. I am meticulous, with an unmatched level of attention to detail, and I care deeply about the quality of my work. I feel strongly about creating organizational systems and getting processes down in writing. I enjoy creating guidelines and templates that help everyone succeed. (Yet, I also believe that you cannot schedule creativity and must embrace how each day guides you while still accomplishing what’s necessary.) I believe in open, honest, and transparent communication in all facets of my life, including the workplace. I perform best in a supportive work environment that allows employees to shine and work autonomously, based on mutual respect and trust. I thrive in companies that treat their employees like human beings and understand the importance of a healthy work-life balance, including adequate time to relax, disconnect, and enjoy life as we're meant to.

I have a passion for visual storytelling. I cut my teeth in photography by covering sports for a small newspaper in Chicago. But I didn't do it by covering prep sports...I spent two years traveling the country covering the UFC. A few years later, I found myself at the Medill School of Journalism honing my video skills and added a new dimension to my passion. While I love sports, I'm not a one-trick pony. I'm a journalist...the world interests me. Everything from social justice to technology...I don't want to limit myself to just one beat.

Hi there. I’m a filmmaker specializing in documentary film of all sizes. My work has appeared on PBS, Time Magazine, CNN, NPR, G4, Billboard Magazine and the Huffington Post. I frequently work with the internationally acclaimed Kartemquin Films (Hoop Dreams, The Interrupters), where I've just finished producing the award-winning documentary feature, "Raising Bertie." Other items of interest: Though I don’t look it, I'm mixed race. My father is Caucasian and my mother is Jamaican/Cuban. While I certainly didn’t get a lot of my mother’s pigmentation, I carry a deep and unique understanding of race and culture. It has helped make me into a compassionate, empathetic filmmaker. Diversity has also carried into my career. Wearing different hats has helped me develop a temperament well suited for travel and the unexpected. I spent over two years living, studying, working and volunteering abroad. I’ve been shipwrecked, lost in the jungle, tear-gassed and nearly stabbed by a 13 year old. I’ve also surfed Brazil, camped in the rainforest, splashed about in a volcano and made friends with a 13 year old. You win some you lose some.
