Academics
I'm a PhD student at the University of Huddersfield, studying celebrity and fandom. My masters dissertation looked at constructions of authenticity in celebrity magazine profiles. You can read my academic writing, in subjects such as sociology, economics, and literature from my Masters and Undergraduate degrees.
Writing
I have a background in magazine journalism and publishing, with work featured on HuffingtonPost, Her Campus, and Open Data Science Conference, among others. I've also worked as a ghostwriter and content writer, writing articles for publications such as Forbes, and creating marketing content for various brands in the Los Angeles area.
The Ethical Employment Project
I co-founded and co-run an employment resource for college-aged adults, to help them thrive as they enter the working world. You can read some of the pieces I've written for it in the tab above, or the button below will re-direct you to that website.
Bio
I got hired for my first internship at 15, and the words "I'd rather be busy than bored" practically became my catchphrase. Since then, a dozen jobs and two giant moves later, it still rings true.
I’m a PhD student at the University of Huddersfield researching celebrity and fandom, and serve as a communications and research officer for the Girls' School Association.
I'm an alum of the University of Leeds, where I completed a MA in Social Research and received a Pass with Distinction mark. My dissertation looked at the production of authenticity within celebrity magazine profiles. I also served as the school representative for the School of Sociology and Social Policy, acting as liaison between students and faculty.
I did my undergraduate degree at Emerson College, where I created an individually designed interdisciplinary program called Writing and Publishing on Inequality, worked as a research assistant, and was an editor at our Her Campus Chapter.
