I'm Maggie, a freelance writer and journalist. Originally from New Orleans, Louisiana, I've reported in cities around the country. I've just completed my Master's degree in journalism from Northwestern University, where I also received a Bachelor's degree. I am passionate about telling stories about people navigating the (often unjust) world around them. My work has been featured in Washingtonian, Nola Adore, and North by Northwestern.
I love writing long-form, feature-length pieces, telling the stories that matter most with nuance and empathy.
I'm a firm believer in immersing myself in the place I'm reporting in. New Orleans will always be home for me, but I'll love wherever I end up!
I studied political science during my time at Northwestern, and I'm fascinated by the intersection of politics and people's everyday lives.
I have extensive experience with social media content planning and creating. In addition, I've created interactive online stories using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
