Online journalism
I have covered a range of topics from the opioid crisis to local web series competitions, from Europe's refugee crisis to Vancouver's housing crisis. Currently I write introductions, copy, and promos for shows on CTV News Toronto and CP24. Previously I wrote online stories for Global News Kingston’s website.
