I am currently a lead junior editor for GLAAD's youth content platform, amp. As an editor, I handle first pass edits on student writing, help craft editorial campaigns centered around the GLAAD Media Awards and Pride, and coordinate editorial team meetings. I recently attended the 2019 GLAAD Media Awards in Los Angeles and assisted GLAAD's social team by fielding social media engagements through the duration of the event.
From June to Aug. 2017, I worked as an entertainment media intern at GLAAD. I assisted in monitoring LGBTQ characters and storylines on TV series like Kingdom and The Night Shift, wrote weekly queer entertainment news summaries, conducted research for GLAAD's Where We Are On TV 17-18 report and wrote two op-eds in the final stages of my internship. Following my internship, I signed on as a GLAAD campus ambassador.
My complete list of writings for GLAAD — both as an intern and as a campus ambassador — can be accessed here.
Some highlights include:
