My Newspaper Columns

I was given the opportunity to write for the local Connection Newspapers in 2014, when I was searching for ways to help increase awareness of the plight of kids aging out of foster care.

It’s been great to be able to combine images with writing to enhance my storytelling about things that people locally and across the country can relate to.

In 2015, I won second place for my columns, from the Virginia Press Association.

I now write beyond issues relating to children in foster care. Columns and articles below:
