Check out one of my latest stories below. :)

Yesterday we printed our last paper of the semester! Out of the three final papers I have witnessed @TheAlligator publish, this was the first I could stay awake for to watch the paper print 😅 These are the people who made it worth it:

Ladies and gentlemen, it’s a wrap (at least until the Fall). My stint as Sports Editor for @alligatorSports has come to an end. This was an experience I’d do 100x over and my fellow staff of writers and editors made it so much better. (probably a thread)

After speaking to Columbia professor and New Yorker staff writer @jelani9 this morning, my new motto is to “read critically and graciously.” I’ve been nervous about this industry and he gave solid advice. I see words as puzzle pieces and he said to “take the engine apart.” 😄🤩

I run a journalism club for middle schoolers. Today they asked: “Do you have a boyfriend or a girlfriend?” “I’m married.” “To a boy or to a girl?” My whole spirit lit up. Good journalists don’t make assumptions. They’re gonna do great.


Two Alligators and an Allie-gator :) So proud of @AlliePitchon and my @TheAlligator friends @kaliarichardson and @AprilMRubin So incredibly deserved!

We’re pleased to introduce the 2022–23 @nytimes fellowship class. nytco.com/careers/newsro…

The Hearst Journalism awards announced its winners for the sports writing category last night. I’m proud to announce that I finished third place for the story I wrote back in late September about the toxic environment in the Florida women’s basketball program.

UF basketball players flock to the bathroom barber shop of Ju-Ray Kuo, the team’s student manager and unofficial barber, for great cuts and insightful chats. “The haircuts will fade but the conversation is what will last forever.” ✍️ || @elenabarreraaa alligator.org/article/2022/0…
