I am an award-winning freelance writer with a passion for health and social justice. I am a contributor for The Washington City Paper, The DC Line, and Capital Community News, I have bylines in The Washington Post, TheGrio.com, A&U Magazine, The Body.com, and the Black AIDS Institute.

I am based in Washington, D.C., and have a background in public health and education. I have made many connections over the years with health advocates, policymakers , community leaders, and other journalists. I continuously pursue opportunities to learn and grow so that when I compose an article it is thoroughly researched, engaging, thought-provoking, and co-signed by some of the best experts in the field.
