I'm a journalism student currently living in Toronto and exploring my more creative side. Before J-school I studied Political Science and Global Development in university.
What is unique that's not in your bio?
When I get really tired my eyes go cross-eyed.
What's your favorite accomplishment?
Hmm graduating from Queen's University.
How do you define cool?
Cool is confidence.
What is your secret to uncovering trends?
Multi-tasking! I surf the internet while watching tv, doing homework, eating dinner, etc. Always on the lookout for cool things to share!
What do you enjoy most about Trend Hunter?
The diversity of topics - and the freedom to write about anything from fashion to electronics to current events.
What is your favorite trend?
Anything that's bold and fashion-related!
What are your tips for writing a juicy post?
Think, 'what do you want to read about'. Oh and sex always sells too.
How do you reset to be creative?
Sleep, coffee, exercise, tv, cuddle with my cat, or hang out with friends.
What inspires or excites you?
Seeing the finished product of something that I've worked really hard on and put my heart into.
Predict something awesome for 2020?
I'd love if we could tele-transport anywhere in the world by then. I love travelling but long flights and car rides - not so much.
