About Me |
I am a Communication and Media Studies Ph.D. candidate in the University of Oregon (UO) School of Journalism and Communication. To my doctoral studies, I bring over twelve years of professional communication and media experience in the public, private, and social sectors. I was a gender equity/health educator with the Peace Corps in West Africa, a multi-national multimedia consultant, and a health communicator at the US Food and Drug Administration and the National Cancer Institute.
Alongside my studies, I served as a wildland firefighter for the US Forest Service, which motivated my dissertation topic on news coverage of wildfire recovery as informed by those who fight fire. I regularly enjoy the outdoors and have been fortunate to walk the Appalachian, Pacific Crest, Long, and Wonderland trails. My pronouns are He/Him/His.
