About
My Background
I am a writer and essayist with a history in political commentary stretching back to when I was in high school, recording podcast episodes on national political headlines from my bedroom. This interest in US politics has evolved, over time, into a broader interest in political and social philosophy which I aim to blend into an interdisciplinary specialization across these two disparate fields.
My philosophical interests are at a confluence of continental thought (existentialism in particular) and the rigor of analytic methods to explain and address contemporary political problems in the U.S. and beyond, focusing on partisan identity and antipathy in this especially polarized time. My works aims to understand the political subject and their world; In hopes of providing new theoretical and political courses of action for both to pursue in American politics and possibly beyond.
I adopted a burgeoning interest in journalism and writing late in high school, learning the skills to the unique writing of AP style alongside my extensive experience with academic writing styles such as Chicago 17th ed. and APA style. This expansive knowledge base has made me a dynamic and expressive writer all-around.
I received my Bachelor's Degree in Political Science with a minor concentration in Journalism from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte in 2026.
My Life
I was born August 27th, 2003 in the city of Asheville, North Carolina. For the next 18 years I called various parts of Western North Carolina my home.
As a child, I pursued a passion with film and television that cumulated in 2015-2016 when I briefly lived in the suburbs of Los Angeles and attended child acting conferences and agent meetups.
As that passion died down and the 2016 presidential election broiled over, an interest in politics emerged that became my primary fixation through middle and high school. During which I Independently published 4 political science and commentary books. I was also the host of two politics & news podcasts during high school.
I attended my first undergraduate semester at the George Washington University before transferring to the University of North Carolina at Charlotte in 2023, where I earned my Bachelor of Arts in Political Science.
I have been a contributing writer for two university student news publications, and continue to write on my substack account.
