My experience as a journalist, which spans nearly 15 years, includes reporting for public radio stations, coverage of science and environmental issues, and most recently, I served as senior editor of National Geographic’s Overheard podcast.
Currently, I’m a digital news producer at WUNC 91.5 FM – North Carolina Public Radio, the NPR affiliate that covers the NC Triangle region and statewide issues. My reporting mainly focuses on stories about the Asian American Pacific Islander diaspora. I also create reported comics that cover various social issues, including abortion access and extreme heat’s impact on human health. I’m also interested in collaborations with artists and work that promotes public engagement with journalism.
