Had the opportunity to sit down with my brothers from Haus of Bloos for “The Green Room” artist interview segment. We had a great conversation ranging from Nicaraguan migration patterns to being vulnerable as a creative. Be sure to listen to Haus of Bloos wherever you stream podcasts to catch the full interview as well as some previews of the new album and an acoustic performance!

Spoleto Wrap-Up
Had the immense pleasure of attending and covering the 2017 Spoleto Music and Arts Festival in Charleston, South Carolina. Working with the Pulitzer Prize Winning Post and Courier provided great insight and experience. Over the course of three weeks I was lucky enough to cover a wide array of artists and events. Samples of the work are available to read below, enjoy.
Syracuse Hip-Hop On The Fringe
Published a story covering the hip-hop scene in upstate New York. While it can be difficult for artists to be discovered, groups like Last Hope Entertainment are working hard to build something on the ground they stand on. Many artists flock to larger markets to chase their major label dreams, so it’s refreshing to see artists collaborating for a grassroots movement. Progress is a slow process, but longevity is the true reward.
Syracuse University Human Rights Film Festival
Published an article on the Newhouse School website about “The Man Who Saw Too Much,” an independent Mexican film about crime photographer Enrique Metinides, who has gained a cult following in his 50 year career. The screening came as part of the 14th annual Syracuse University Human Rights Film Festival, which is organized by multiple schools throughout the university.
