I am an award-winning writer with a strong research background, a love for photography and a passion for storytelling. In my time as a journalist, I've reported on a wide variety of topics: news, arts, sports, food, finance, tech, and plenty more. I’m also a massive Cincinnati sports fan, and will continue to let the Reds and Bengals keep playing with my emotions for as long as I live.
