Biography

I’m a producer at NPR.org. I hail from Bethesda, Md., but started my journalism career in Chicago, where I earned my master’s at Northwestern University’s Medill School of Journalism. A second-generation American, I’m fluent in Spanish (with a heavy Argentine accent), proficient in French (my undergraduate major) and still remember a few words of Wolof from my time in West Africa. Since moving back to the D.C. metro area, I’ve become a dedicated bike commuter and occasional quilter.
