Education ReporterI cover education in the Lehigh Valley, focusing primarily on Allentown and Bethlehem Area schools. Originally from Allentown, I graduated from Central Catholic before moving to Philadelphia, where I attended Temple University to study journalism. In 2020, I got my start in journalism writing for Philly publications, including Billy Penn, Generocity and Grid Philly. Shortly after, I returned to the Lehigh Valley to join The Morning Call, where I worked for two years and won a Keystone Award for diversity coverage.
