About
I’m a non-clinical healthcare grad student and creative who bridges the worlds of public health, project management, and lifestyle content creation. By day, I thrive in the structure of leadership, planning, and systems-level strategy. By night (and often with a matcha in hand), I create soft, aspirational content for ambitious women balancing academia, beauty, and well-being. My content speaks to the “It Girl” in her student era which consists of clean skincare, cozy routines, healthy habits, and the real-life rhythm of grad school. What connects these two sides of me, project management and content creation; is a love of clarity, organization, and storytelling. Whether it’s managing complex projects with precision or building digital spaces that inspire and uplift, I’m driven by the idea of creating systems and stories that feel both seamless and impactful. With a background in health administration, I bring skills in strategic planning, resource management, and communication. Paired with my creative approach to content, I’m able to develop sustainable solutions, engaging narratives, and meaningful experiences for communities and organizations alike. I’m drawn to opportunities where innovation meets impact; where ideas don’t just look good on paper but come to life in ways that make people feel seen, supported, and inspired.
