Interview
Have you ever used a typewriter?
Yes, having grown up in Trinidad, I attended St. Joseph's Convent, where we had to pass a typing class in high school.
Why did you become a journalist?
I got into journalism in an attempt to address the horror stories students shared in my work as a social worker, committed to anti-oppressive practice.
What story are you most proud of writing or working on?
I am most proud of my forthcoming Asparagus Magazine story, given how long I have tried to bring much-needed attention to inequitable mental health care.
What advice can you offer to aspiring journalists?
Amplify marginalized voices!
