About me

I'm a senior at Northeastern University in Boston, graduating in April 2026 with a major in journalism and minors in political science and public relations. I currently work as a freelance video producer for Boston.com, where I worked full-time for four months as an audience engagement co-op. Previously, I did a six-month digital media fellowship in the U.S. House of Representatives for the office of David Trone (MD-06).

I've also been a managing editor of The Huntington News, Northeastern's independent student newspaper, for one year. I oversee a staff of 110 students, manage editorial content and business operations, and lead alumni outreach and event planning in the paper's 100th year. Prior, I was audiovisual editor and social media editor for two years and built the paper's audience engagement strategy from the ground up.

First place in in-depth reporting, 2025 New England Newspaper and Press Association Better Newspaper Competition College Division

Work: "Campus Turned Processing Area"

Judges' comments: This massive reporting effort by three Northeastern students provides needed accountability on the university's decision to arrest 98 at an anti-war encampment. The entire team at The Huntington News showed that reporting depth can be achieved in both short (69 published web updates over two days) and long form. The report by
Annika Sunkara, Eli Curwin and Emily Spatz deserves to
stand as the definitive account of this difficult passage in
the school's history, thanks to their deep interviewing, eye
for detail, and plain old shoe leather reporting.
