"I never intended to be an influencer but when I started posting lifestyle content about Pepperdine it seemed to really resonate with people. When I transferred to USC the following year my social media really took off. Since then I’ve been fortunate to work with a lot of brands whether it’s in the beauty, food, fashion, or tech industry. If I was told a year ago that I would be working with brands like Rare Beauty, I would not believe it. And I think that’s the beautiful part of social media. The opportunities are quite endless and nothing is far reaching.

I’ll also be interning in New York this summer so I’m very excited to share my journey and meet as many people as I can. My favorite part about reach is the like-minded community of people that I’ve been able to connect with. Social media is a very niche topic that not all people understand. To have others who share similar experiences as I do is a great feeling!"

"although Reach might be perceived as just a social media club, it is so much more than that. Reach is a club filled with people who are a part of all different types of creative fields. I’ve made so many friends who are singers, actors, producers, writers & who make different kinds of content based on what they’re passionate about. Every conversation I’ve had with someone from this club has been so inspiring & motivating. I couldn’t be more grateful to be part of a community where I learn not only from all the incredible opportunities, guest speakers, & events - but also its beyond talented members. I love being a part of the reach family and all the creative & professional opportunities it has given me"
