  • Bed-Stuy, NY

I recently graduated from New York University in May 2010 with a dual degree in journalism and anthropology. I am currently working as a directory specialist at the New York office of Patch, in addition to freelance writing for the Bed-Stuy, Fort Greene and Windsor Terrace Patches. I live in Brooklyn, right next door to Bed-Stuy in East Williamsburg/Bushwick. My only long-term goal at the moment is to have a career in writing, so for right now I'm trying out all my options in an attempt to find a specialization.
