While pursuing my bachelor’s degree in journalism, I have written for The Lantern, Ohio State’s award-winning student newspaper. I also started a passion project: a Substack blog called Uniformity, dedicated to analyzing sports uniforms, logos and branding.

I’ve always been passionate about capturing emotion and telling the story of the person, not just the player. I have also gotten to explore one of my greatest fascinations with Uniformity, and I enjoy diving deep into a subject to craft a thorough, compelling narrative. Below are some of my favorite stories from my time as a Lantern sports reporter and Uniformity blog writer.
