about (ﾉ ヮ )ﾉ*
I’m a queer, creative, data-driven writer and a B2B product marketer at a global healthcare IT company. I’m also a graduate student at Agnes Scott College pursuing my M.S. in Data Analysis + Communication with an expected conferral date of December 2024.
I earned my bachelor’s degree in journalism and women’s + gender studies from Mercer University, where I was appointed editor in chief of our independent student-run newspaper and awarded a John M. Couric Media Fellowship at Georgia Public Broadcasting. My thesis quantitatively and qualitatively explored nonbinary students’ experiences at Georgia’s higher education institutions.
After graduation, I worked at Healthline Media as an associate nutrition editor. I commissioned and produced evidence-based content to help diverse audiences wade through the complexities of nutrition science. My approach was, and remains, centered on those most marginalized by healthcare systems.
Next, I applied my content skills more directly to progressive politics as a marketing content associate at ActBlue, the leading Democratic fundraising platform. I was laid off just six months later, started at Phreesia, and began my master’s program that fall. I interned in the City of Atlanta Office of the Public Defender’s data science department, using Microsoft Excel + Python to evaluate the organization’s holistic programs and recommend alternatives to incarceration in addressing criminalized behaviors.
My academic research focuses on queer + feminist data studies; specifically, I explore LGBTQIA+ users’ interactions with health/care technologies.
