I oversee all editorial news operations for RaiderVision, Gulliver Preparatory School's award-winning student broadcast program. I set the news agenda, manage reporter assignments across feature and daily news teams, and maintain the editorial standards that have earned RaiderVision recognition from NATAS, STN, and FSPA at the regional and national level.

I helped create Raider Rise from scratch. This was the program's first season: a fully produced, in-studio live news show with professional cameras, a desk set, and a full crew. A format that had never existed at Gulliver before. I designed the production workflow, set the editorial standards, and ran the show every week: scripting, interviews, B-roll direction, and final edit.

I produced and distributed Raider Recap, RaiderVision's daily social media program covering school news, events, and campus activities. I owned the full production cycle five days a week: scripting, filming, editing, and publishing each episode myself. In a year of daily deadlines, I did not miss one.

I led one of RaiderVision's feature news teams, guiding reporters from story development through final edit. That meant deciding which stories we pursue, conducting source interviews, directing B-roll, and owning every phase of production for our team. The work was recognized by FSPA, STN, and NATAS at the regional and national level.

I teach feature storytelling and human interest journalism to middle school students on weekends. My curriculum covers storytelling fundamentals, ethical reporting, interview technique, and on-camera presentation. I build lesson plans from scratch that translate professional newsroom standards into engaging, accessible instruction for students who have never stepped in front of a camera. Most of them have never considered journalism as a possibility. That changes after class.

For two summers I have taught younger students the fundamentals of broadcast journalism and production at RaiderVision's summer camp. I design and lead hands-on instruction covering storytelling, on-camera presentation, and production basics, bringing the same standards I hold in the newsroom to a new generation of student journalists.

I am leading all media and content creation at an all-girls residential camp in Pennsylvania. I produce and direct video content, manage the camp's social storytelling, and teach campers how to create compelling content. The same discipline I bring to the newsroom, applied to a new environment.

I serve as Vice President of the Jewish Student Union, helping organize programming, community events, and campus initiatives. Leadership outside the newsroom is part of who I am.

I founded and continue to run my own e-commerce business alongside everything else. Building something from the ground up while maintaining a full academic and extracurricular schedule has taught me discipline, resourcefulness, and time management.
