I'm a Senior Staff Writer at BuzzFeed, where I cover real-life stories that explore relationships, lifestyle (including travel and beauty), and the internet's most fascinating trends. I earned my English degree from the University of Pennsylvania, with a concentration in Cinema and Media Studies, a minor in Creative Writing, and a certificate in French. Outside of work, I love experimenting in the kitchen, sharing natural hair content on TikTok, and dreaming up my next travel adventure.

"My forever eternal disappointment and fury for the casting of Elijah Wood as Frodo. It made me want to scream and cry when I saw it in the theaters."

"RN here. I don't love my career anymore. I've worked in various fields and have seen insurance companies deny life-saving medications in all of them, senselessly. I had an insurance deny a patient's inhaler that she's had for over 10 years. She will die without it."
"Disney World! It's crowded, expensive, and you spend hours standing in line for a few minutes of fun. No thanks!"
"I hate the 'minimalistic' all-white look. You're not Kim Kardashian. That's just so boring, has no personality, and zero cosiness."
I didn't even recognize some of them!!!
"Often, patients say they are allergic to morphine and codeine because they experience nausea and vomiting with these medications. This is NOT AN ALLERGY. This is a side effect."
