Currently working as a Lead Public Affairs Specialist for the U.S. Forest Service

I first got my start as a combat correspondent in the U.S. Marine Corps. During that time, I traveled to eight countries covering military exercises, photographing and writing articles.

Since then, I’ve worked as an instructor in higher education while in the Peace Corps, freelanced, and developed skills in all things communication.

Now as a Lead Public Affairs Specialist, I work with a team of content creators to assess what content will best serve the public and represent the Forest Service. As a team, we discuss story topics/ angles, provide coverage, and produce finished products. These finished products are then distributed throughout the agency, to partners, and media contacts.
