My background in journalism started as a sports intern for the Riverdale Press and News 12 The Bronx/Brooklyn and as a breaking news intern at the Staten Island Advance/SILive.com.

During my time at the Quad, I earned Manhattan's Excellence in Journalism, Best Sports News Article and Most Prolific awards, including nominations for eight similar awards in my four years.
