Raising awareness by providing news to the public is my primary focus. Being involved with different communities, publications, and news outlets has allowed me to develop news judgment while mastering documentary, broadcasting, editing, and newsgathering techniques. As a journalist, my primary research interests include worker safety, corruption, single parent families, environmental health patterns, and immigration. I have a vested interest in medical, cultural, political, ethnographic and religious issues in rural and urban Africa. My focus centers on producing documentary films that sustain the importance of investigative reporting through broadcast journalism. I’m a “watchdog journalist” who aims to produce accountable reporting.
