Pronouns: she, her, hers
What do you do at HMS?
I research and write speeches for Dean George Daley. I also draft many of his emails to the community, and I occasionally contribute articles to Harvard Medicine magazine.
What was your path to HMS?
After graduating from Hamilton College, where I studied comparative literature and physics, I landed a job at the PBS science documentary series NOVA. I started out managing NOVA’s social media, and eventually became a full-time science reporter, covering everything from climate change to mental health.
I transitioned to MIT’s central development office, drafting personalized correspondence from President Rafael Reif to major philanthropists. I enjoyed ghostwriting but missed the science content. Enter HMS!
I've been in the executive communications manager role since July 2021 and have loved every minute of it.
What do you enjoy most about what you do?
This position is perfectly tailored to my skills and interests, combining my love of science with the opportunity to strategize and do big-picture thinking about how best to convey HMS’ institutional vision and goals.
